Ötikon harbour, one of the most impressive and oldest settlements on Lake Zurich, was founded back when people and goods mainly travelled by water. From 1636 to 1868, the granary opposite Gasthof Sonne undertook cargo handling. To the east, the gun club closed off the harbour, offering target practice on the lake shore. The bustling tempo prompted a number of inns to open. The Sonne, Rössli and Löwen all enjoyed a golden age from 1636 thanks to the market. The stone landing stage opened in 1867.
