During the time of National Socialism, the Rhine formed the border between the German Reich and Switzerland. At this border, forced laborers were employed at the nearby quarry to obtain stones for flood protection. Since 2022, a listening walk with three stations has commemorated forced laborers who fled across the Rhine into Switzerland during the war and who were brought from Ukraine to Vorarlberg.
