Lac de Marmorera
Bien vivre de l’énergie vendue à une ville éloignée ou vivre misérablement sur sa terre natale? Le village de Mamorera dans les Grisons rendit son verdict de manière tout à fait démocratique. Zurich avait besoin d’électricité, les villageois d’argent; le village fut donc englouti sous les eaux d’un lac de retenue au milieu du XXe siècle.
Make a good living from the energy sold to a distant town, or live miserably on the land of your birth? The village of Mamorera in the Grisons gave its verdict in a completely democratic manner. Zurich needed electricity, the villagers needed money, so the village was submerged under the waters of a reservoir in the middle of the 20th century.
