In 1975, the Neolithic stilt house village located on the northern lakeshore area called Böschen was discovered by recreational divers.

Initially, they found ceramics, lavishly decorated pots and bowls, and simple, large food tanks.

Weaving spindles made of clay, tools, needles and fishing hooks from bronze, charred wild apples and cereals have been conserved.

From a scientific point of view and besides the location, a particularly interesting aspect is a phase of occupation dating from the Late Horgen culture.

[3] As well as being part of the 56 Swiss sites of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Prehistoric pile dwellings around the Alps, the settlement is also listed in the Swiss inventory of cultural property of national and regional significance as a Class A object of national importance.
