Frauenfeld is the capital of the canton of Thurgau and is located on the outskirts of the canton in the middle of the countryside. Its castle, built in the 13th century, overlooks the river Murg, a tributary of the Thur, which gave the canton its name.

We made only a brief visit to Frauenfeld, as our tour was cut short by a violent storm.

The photos that illustrate this page are extracts from the panoramas that we shot under stormy skies, just before the rain.
