Image description

With the help of Swiss Mountain Aid, construction work is carried out on the Vorderrhein near Surrhein in the canton of Graubuenden. The riverbank is fortified with heavy stones. This is intended to protect the village and the Aecker from the recurring floods, recorded in winter conditions on 13 and 14 January 1945.
