About Schaffhausen

Schaffhausen sits in northern Switzerland on the German border and serves as the capital of its canton. Home to around 39,000 people, it is one of Switzerland's smaller cities, yet it is known for a well-preserved medieval old town with distinctive oriel-windowed facades. The Rhine shapes the city's character, and the nearby Rhine Falls is among Europe's notable natural landmarks. Green spaces including the Zieglerwiese, Mosergarten, and Paradies-Wiese offer room to relax, while the Kurgarten and Kräutergarten provide quieter retreats within the city.
