    The town of Rorschach is located between the rolling hills of the Appenzellerland and the gigantic expanse of the lake. It received market rights as early as 947 and advanced to become the most important trading center on the southern shore of the lake in the Middle Ages. The imposing town houses in the town center bear witness to this to this day. Ships depart daily from the port of Rorschach to Lindau, the island of Mainau/Meersburg and via the Altenrhein to Rheineck.

      Port, harbor pier and harbor square
      The market, coinage and customs rights for the port town of the St. Gallen monastery have existed since 947. Rorschach has been an important trading and goods transshipment point in eastern Switzerland since 1500.
      The harbor crane was defined as one of Rorschach's treasures by the treasure hunter commissioned by the city (2009 to 2011). Redesign of the harbor basin:
      • 1856: Construction of the St. Gallen-Rorschach railway line with a connection to the harbor
      • 1870: Construction of the curved harbor pier The crop market took place every six months on the harbor square until 1950.

        The Kornhaus is one of the landmarks of Rohrschach. This historic warehouse was used from 1746 to 1749 as a transhipment point for grain and other goods. Behind the granary is a marina and outside the harbor wall is the dive site.
