Schaffhauserland From the Rhine Falls to Lake Constance. 2019 - Schaffhauserland ...
On July 10, 1045 the town was mentioned in a document for the first time. Today
     Schaffhausen is one of the best preserved cities dating back to the Middle Ages. Up
     ahead around the corner, down an alley and underneath the archway – anyone who
     sets out to discover the winding little alleys, the magnificent houses with their ornate
     oriels and the numerous fountains will find themselves unexpectedly transported back in
     time a thousand years. And from time to time it seems as if the hustle and bustle, and
     the din and the clatter of yesteryear still hover in the air.

Stein am Rhein.
     Every building tells a story.

Stein am Rhein is a unique gem on Lake Constance and the Rhine. There where the
lake becomes the Rhine once more, it is nestled in an awe-inspiring landscape. The
charm of this little medieval town imme­diately casts its spell on the visitor. High above
the Old Town towers Castle Hohenklingen. The climb up there is rewarded with
breathtaking views of the southern Hegau, Lake Constance and the Rhine.

Refreshing moments
  The Rhine is a key attraction for visitors to the Schaffhausen region. Go on a voyage
of discovery along or on the Rhine through one of the most beautiful river landscapes in
      Europe. Why not charter a motorboat, a weidling wooden punt, a canoe or a
rubber dinghy for the family? Or you can enjoy a relaxing day in one of over 20 indoor
                              and outdoor swimming pools.

Lots of fun for children
                                       and parents!
 When your little one is playing, discovering and frolicking about, your world is also hunky-
  dory! The Schaffhausen region is full of surprises when it comes to activities and attractions
for the whole family. And because we know that nothing tastes quite like your own barbecued
  sausage, there are inviting picnic areas and barbecue sites everywhere! The large number of
 reasonably priced holiday flats and family hostels to choose from means that family fun does
not have to suffer under budgetary restrictions. And if you really want to score points with the
 kids, take them to sleep «in the straw» on one of the many farms – or even in a wine barrel.
