Allenmoosstrasse

Allenmoosstrasse goes from Hofwiesenstrasse to Dörflistrasse. It comes from the field name "Salenmoos", which describes swampy land on which willows grows. The name has derived from Salenmoos because it was interpreted as s'Alenmoss (where the "s" would be an article - the local version of "das").
