In 2003 the remains of a Mammoth were found, and further finds resulted in the establishment of the present Mammutmuseum Niederweningen near the site of the first findings.[2] The psychiatrist Adolf Meyer was born in Niederweningen in 1866.

In 1890, workers building the railroad through the valley discovered mammoth bones, which were housed in the Zoological Museum in Zurich.[4] In 2003 a 34,000-year-old complete mammoth skeleton was discovered not far from the 1890 site.
