The transformation of Salquenen from a farming village to today’s wine village began after World War II. Today, there are 203 hectares of vineyards and over forty wineries.
The coat of arms of Salquenen bears the Maltese Cross in memory of the Knights of St. John of Malta. In the 13th century, members of the Maltese Order settled in Salquenen and, in accordance with their beliefs, founded a lodging for pilgrims and travelers. The Knights of St. John remained in Salquenen for about 400 years.
