The archaeological site Borscht is situated on Eschnerberg hill in Schellenberg (Liechtenstein). Because of the topological advantage of the hill plateau, it was used for settlements already in the Neolithic, as shown by finds from the Rössen Culture or Rössen Culture-influenced people (ca. 4400 BC). The site was continuously inhabitated also in the Bronze Age and the Iron Age.
