Weinfelden lies on the banks of the River Thur in the canton of Thurgau. The town in eastern Switzerland is known for its picturesque old town with well-preserved half-timbered houses and historic buildings. A special attraction is Weinfelden Castle, which offers a wonderful view of the surrounding area. Wine growing plays an important role in the region. Visitors can visit numerous local wineries and take part in wine tastings. Another highlight is the Thurauen nature reserve, which is perfect for walks, birdwatching and nature photography.
