The Memminger Straße ended in penal times on the bridge over the Schlangenbach. From there the Untere Gasse led to the Bräuhausberg and the Großer Kornhausplatz . In 1890 Untere Gasse was renovated and renamed Sonnenstraße . In 1926 house numbering in Kempten was reformed; The Sonnenstrasse and Memminger Strasse from the former district hospital to the Johannisbrücke over the Rottach were combined to form Memminger Strasse.

With the renovation of Memminger Strasse towards the end of the 1960s, it became a main traffic axis through the city center.
