In the "Silvrettadorf," the barracks settlement below the dam wall of the Silvretta Reservoir, people forced into labor during the construction of the reservoir were accommodated. As part of the SilvrettAtelier 2014, the Canadian artist Reece Terris dealt with the history of the place and the barracks settlement. On the roofs of two houses, Terris temporarily placed the words ART CAMP and WORK CAMP in signal-red wooden letters. Today, the "Silvrettadorf" houses, among other things, a nature house.
