Nordstadt is the name for the area of the urban expansion that was built in the second half of the 19th century on the slope of the Wuppertal north heights , north of the city center of the then city of Elberfeld . Today one of the 69 statistical quarters of Wuppertal is so named. The north city is divided by the Hochstraße into the Ölberg district to the south and the actual north city north of it. The development is characterized by multi-storey apartment buildings in the style of historicism and the Wilhelminian era. The Elberfelder Nordstadt is one of the largest contiguous old building areas from the Wilhelminian era in Germany. The three large Elberfeld parishes also built new churches for the district during these years, in 1850 the Lutheran Kreuzkirche , in 1884 the Catholic Herz-Jesu-Kirche and in 1898 the Reformed cemetery church .
