history
The name Monbijou is derived from a former baroque estate that bore the same name. Until the 1840s, the Monbijou was a rural area with estates (Inselscheuer, Besenscheuer, Äusseres Sulgenbachgut, Scheuermattgut etc.), which was crossed by streams. Milling and dyeing works had been located on the Sulgenbach since the Middle Ages and their settlement name was Sulgen . The old Könizstrasse (today Monbijoustrasse and Mühlemattstrasse ) was the most important southern arterial road until 1860 when the Belpstrasse was built. Between the Sulgenbach in the south and the Villette to the north, a loose and inconsistent settlement structure began to emerge around 1850, which still characterizes the quarter today. In 1873 a road network plan for the area was decided.
