Haan: Gruiten Limestone Quarries, the Garden City of the Bergisches Land, and Suburban Calm Between Solingen and Hilden
Haan has around 29,400 residents and lies in the Bergisches Land district of Mettmann, Nordrhein-Westfalen. The town markets itself as the "Gartenstadt" (garden city) because of its green residential character. Gruiten, a constituent village, sits near exposed Devonian limestone formations that once supported quarrying. The Duesseldorf-Wuppertal S-Bahn line passes through.
Solingen is a few kilometres east, Hilden directly to the west. Duesseldorf lies about 15 kilometres northwest. Wuppertal is roughly 15 kilometres northeast. The Itter stream forms the western municipal boundary. Haan's position in the Bergisches Land provides hilly terrain with mixed woodland, though the town itself is largely suburban.
