Neuhof, Strasbourg

Neuhof (literally new land or new farm) is a suburb in the southern district of the French city of Strasbourg.

[1] Neuhof's borders are Meinau to the west, the Neudorf railway to the north, the Rhine and the forest of Neuhof (part of the natural reserve of the "massif forestier de Strasbourg-Neuhof/Illkirch-Graffenstaden") to the east and south, and the commune of Illkirch-Graffenstaden to the southwest.

First mention of the name "Neue Hoff" was in 1424 for citing the creation of a farm within the domain of a village of Hundsfelden on the outskirts of Rhine.

The badly maintained projects quickly degenerated into unfavourable living conditions, drug and crime-ridden environments.

Starting 2001, Neuhof has been witnessing a great renovation project and since 2007, has been served by the extension of tramway service from Strasbourg.
