Mulhouse's workers' housing development is one of France's major successes in terms of the integration of the working class by the industrial factory owning bourgeoisie. In 1853, Mulhouse's industrialists promoted the foundation of the Société Mulhousienne des Cités Ouvrières (Mulhouse Workers' Estates Company). Between 1853 and 1897, it built 1200 houses designed for workers working in Mulhouse's factories, giving them access to property and indirectly allowing them to achieve a settled lifestyle. Today, this district has retained its charm, with its little alleys with poetic names and its gardens.
