Laufenburg D

Laufenburg:

Until 1801 one town on the river Rhine, only after the Lunévillier-Treaty of 1801 the city is divided, the right bank is separated from the Reich and the left bank joins the new founded Swiss canton Aargau (AG) in 1803.
From 1805 until November 1930 the German part is called Kleinlaufenburg (="Litttle Laufenburg"), since then it has been officially named Laufenburg (Baden).
