Frauenfeld, the capital of the canton of Thurgau, is located a few dozen kilometers west of Lake Constance. The city, founded in the 13th century as a fortified castle, became a possession of the Habsburgs in the following century, and in 1460 it became part of the Helvetic Confederation. The small town, very suggestive, has in its historic center several examples of medieval and Baroque-style buildings.
