This reminds me of two (that I'm aware of, there may be more) street names in Munich that appear to be named after places but are actually named after people named after places: Passauerstraße (named after the leader of a peasant uprising rather than the city Passau) and Dessauerstraße (named after https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopold_I,_Prince_of_Anhalt-De... rather than the city Dessau) - the only clue being that streets named after places, e.g. Aachener Straße, are written with a space in the name (or rather should be, but lots of people already get this rule wrong), while streets named after people are written as one word or with dashes. Needless to say, the likelihood of these street names being spelled wrong is even higher, including in a very prominent (and expensive to fix) place: an illuminated street sign in a tunnel https://www.merkur.de/lokales/muenchen/sendling-westpark-ort... - it's hard to see in the photo, but the letters are made of individual LEDs, so correcting the mistake would basically require building a new sign.
