About Schaffhausen
Schaffhausen is a Swiss town on the upper Rhine River, in a wine-growing area near the German border. Baroque buildings with bay windows and decorated facades dot the medieval old town, dominated by the 16th-century Munot Fortress. Nearby, the High Gothic church of St. Johann is known for its acoustics. Kloster Allerheiligen, a former Benedictine monastery, includes a Romanesque cathedral.
