geography

The 2.75 km² residential area is located in the south of Wuppertal. The neighboring town of Remscheid borders to the east of the residential area, and the municipal boundary is in the Morsbach valley . Cronenfeld then extends in the south to the point at which Hastener Strasse crosses the municipal boundaries. In the south is the residential area of Cronenberg-Mitte , only from Hastener Straße does the district boundary run in a north-westerly direction. In the West, the Nolle Hammerbach the landmark of the district boundary. The residential area Küllenhahn bordered to the north Crone field, starting from the mouth of the Nolle Hammer brook, the Burgholzbach until just before the settlement Neuenhaus / Wilhelmring the residential district boundary. Here the demarcation of the former route of the Burgholzbahn follows, bordering on the Hahnerberg residential area .

Vonkel , formerly Vohwinkel (not to be confused with the district), is an old settlement core. Germany's only club exists there that pursues the old sport of picking . A modern settlement is on Mastweg . The Nöllenhammer is located on the Burgholzbach .

Additional localities and suburbs include Vorder- and Hinterdohr , Heide , Hensgesneuhaus , Kleinenhammer and Oberkamp .

The Knipex company should be mentioned as a special building or facility .

Transport infrastructure

The location of the Wuppertal-Cronenfeld stop after the closure

The disused Elberfeld – Cronenberg ( Burgholzbahn ) railway had a stopping point set up in 1891 under the name Cronenfeld in the residential area . This stop was renamed Wuppertal-Cronenfeld in 1952 and served until 1988.

Today an old section of track with a direction sign reminds of the twin cities of Wuppertal where the Burgholzbahn used to stop.
