Ebnat (locally spoken: Ebnet ) is an industrial quarter east of the inner city of Schaffhausen . Its name comes from the flat hallway . Ebnat serves as the superordinate field name for the corridors Tanscherhaalde, Ebnetring, Ebnet, Hafeteckel, Chroonehaalde and Winterhaalde. Only the three corridors Ebnet, Ebnetring and Tanscherhaalde are used as industrial quarters, Winterhaalde is forest , the other areas are mixed areas .

The area was acquired by the municipality in 1910 for industrial purposes and, with 231 hectares, made available a much larger area than the cramped Mühlental . It was therefore acquired specifically for the relocation of industries . In his dissertation in 1918, Walter Wirth mainly emphasized the advantages of the spacious level and the proximity of the freight yard. Due to these favorable circumstances, it was settled quickly and in 1916 it was already covered with 64 hectares. This settlement took place at the time of "pronounced external and internal growth" in Switzerland.

The name was transferred to the Ebnatstrasse built there and the Ebnat restaurant (Ebnatstrasse 72), which was built in 1910 and now functions as the Frohberg dormitory .

After the construction of the Herblingertal industrial area in the 1960s, the two industrial areas merged seamlessly.
