Adolph-Saurer QuaiAbstractThis alley, which crosses the entire lakeside, is named after Adolph Saurer (1841-1920), one of the pioneers of modern Swiss industry. The Saurer family from Arbon produced the famous trucks that bear their name. It was Saurer who in 1904 patented the engine brake that is used on all vehicles today. It was also thanks to Saurer that engines are no longer started by cranking, as the company patented a compressor starter in 1905, which was adopted by Renault, among others.
