Schaffhausen Travel guide
Schaffhausen : Michelin's recommendations
Ranged on the Rhine's right bank, the old town of Schaffhouse is one of of Switzerland's most charming, owing to the Renaissance and Classical style of its buildings. Once a major depot, the town today still benefits from its central location and its place on the river. The industrial centre's factories are outside the old town which has been able to maintain its appearance from the past.
