The street was built from 1853/54 together with Fortuna and Pavillonstraße : In the course of advancing industrialization , the property owners at the time, Niemeyer and Haspelmath, prompted the royal court architect Georg Ludwig Friedrich Laves to draft the first urban plans, after which the first workers' houses with various residential units and types of use have been established.

At the same time, the architect Ludwig Debo built the first workers' settlement in northern Germany there in 1854 , which was built according to the solar construction theory developed by Bernhard Christoph Faust . However, these buildings were demolished in 1960.

The building group Viktoriastraße 23, 24 and 25 , which emerged in the late 20th century, was awarded the prize in 1983 as the “winner in the state competition” for building and living in old surroundings .
