The name of the settlement "Blumenau" was decided in 1964 by the main committee of the city council. At that time the name was already in use by the residents of Kleinhadern and refers to the numerous streets that are named after flowers. Next to the Silberdistelstraße, which today leads in the direction of Neuhadern and the motorway, you will find the Krokus-, Veilchen- and Primelstraße in Kleinhadern. The name "Blumenau" was then used for the neighboring new housing estate, although the streets and paths there are named after artists such as Xaver Terofal , Wastl Witt or Karl Flemisch , who all came from Munich or were mainly active there.

When the city districts were redistributed in 1992, the name "Blumenau" was also used for the entire northern district of Haderns, which includes Kleinhadern in addition to the Blumenau Nord settlement.
