Rapperswil castle, old town

The small, quaint alleys in the medieval old part of town invites visitors to take a stroll or do window shopping. The Rapperswil castle is perched high upon a hill and contains a Polish museum. Its location offers visitors a breathtaking view of the city and lake. Rapperswil earned its name as the city of roses for the more than 16,000 roses that bloom in the rose gardens of the Capuchin monastery and on the Schanz. The latter is a rose garden for the blind with roses whose scent is particularly fragrant and whose names are written in brail on guide panels.
