Alley from Wikipedia:
An alley or alleyway is a narrow, pedestrian lane found in urban areas which usually run between or behind buildings. In older cities and towns in Europe, alleys are often what is left of a medieval street network. In the British Isles an alley may be a right of way or ancient footpath in an urban setting. In Victorian urban development, alleys were built to allow for delivery of coal to the rear of houses. Alleys may be paved, or simply dirt tracks.Blind alleys have no outlet at one end.

It is only known by a small number of initiates, as an alley full of life, glamour and busyness. It's a place of meeting where you can have a small talk or only meet during daily duty or after work.
This alley is also the only way to get to the Holzkistn (Wooden Box) or the Hainbuchenplatz. and that's why it is the most important and walked on way in the whole company. But a lot of people also used back ways.
Some poeple might think why they had given the alley the name Butcher-Alley. In Germany in the dark ages poeples job became their last names. The same happened with butcher, in German "Metzger". So these alley was not named after the job but after our former first sergeant who's name is Metzger and did plan the whole installation "Pergola" and did push it into practice.
All this happened after the 6th company moved from Roth to Bayreuth in 1994.
