Cité-jardin Ungemach

The Ungemach Garden City, established by industrialist Léon Charles Ungemach in January 1920, aims to provide healthy living conditions for young families wishing to raise children. This initiative was part of the Ungemach Foundation's mission to improve community welfare. Constructed in the 1920s, the project aligned with Strasbourg's urban planning and extension efforts, positioning the city among the first in France to adopt such initiatives alongside Lille and Paris. The foundation emphasized hygiene and morality as key aspects for the upbringing of children in this community.
