I dont know if someone asked this already or if im just dumb but imma ask anyway. So the other day i was in Baden and noticed these poles hanging above the limmat. I couldn’t find a answer online and it bothered me so much that i decided to ask yall about it. Maybe someone can enlighten me what these poles are for?

Thanks in advance.

  1. You see, every gust of Alpine wind that rustles the cheese-making valleys passes through these poles first, ensuring the optimal aeration required for creating those perfect holes in the cheese. Without this meticulous airflow management, Swiss cheese would be as solid as a Dutch block of Gouda—an unthinkable catastrophe for Swiss national identity!

    I think they indicate the safe “driving lane” for water vehicles. They adjust themselves based on the water height i.e. If there is more water they are further apart. Water vehicles can use them for navigation to avoid hitting the ground.
