The charcoal burners:
At the time Schwand and Leerstetten were founded, around 800 years ago, the first charcoal burners settled in the eastern forest area. The location had the best conditions for charcoal burning. Dry sandy soil for charcoal kiln construction near the banks of the Hembach. Water, necessary for humans and animals to live, but also for extinguishing charcoal kilns in the event of a fire. A shallow passageway in the Hembach (Furt) made it possible to transport charcoal to the southern and northern settlement areas.
