Süesswinkel

Die abgwinkelte Gasse, seit 1314 Winkel genannt, war lange Zeit von Ställen und Misthaufen gesäumt.

Von da stammt wohl der 1538 erstmals

erwähnte Spottname

<< Süesser Winkel >>.


German-English translation:

This angled alley, known of since 1314, was for a long time lined with stables and manure heaps.

From that probably comes the nickname "Sweet Spot", first mentioned in 1538.
