Brandgsli

Ein Grossbrand cherte 1833 zehn in einer Doppelzeile aneinandergebaute H?user zwischen der Reuss und dem Korn-und Weinmarkt ein. Beim Wiederaufbau wurden die Neubauten um ein Geschoss erh?ht und die ehemaligen Hinterh?fe in eine Gasse umgewandelt. Diese heisst seit 1834 Brandgsli.

German-English translation:.
In 1833 an inferno incinerated ten adjacent houses of a double row that had been built between the Reuss River and the grain- and wine-markets. During reconstruction, the new buildings were raised one story and the former backyards were converted into an alley. Since 1834 this has been the so-called "Fire Alley".
