The Museum zu Allerheiligen occupies the former Benedictine monastery of All Saints in Schaffhausen's old town, founded in 1049, and opened as a museum in 1928. Its collections cover regional archaeology, history, art and natural history under one roof, and the building adjoins the monastery's Romanesque cloister and herb garden.
The Munot is a circular fortress on the Emmersberg above Schaffhausen's old town, built between 1564 and 1589 along lines drawn from Albrecht Dürer's fortification ideas. Visitors cross the vaulted casemate, climb the tower's spiral ramp to the round battlement platform and look over the vineyard on the slope; the tower bell is rung every evening at 9 p.m.
The Rhine Falls is a waterfall on the Rhine at Neuhausen am Rheinfall, about 3 km from Schaffhausen, 150 m wide and 23 m high and formed after the last ice age. Paths on the Neuhausen bank run along the water, Laufen Castle stands on the opposite bank, and boats cross the basin to the rock in the middle of the falls.
Laufen Castle stands on a rock above the Rhine Falls in Laufen-Uhwiesen, canton of Zurich, on the bank opposite Neuhausen and about 4 km from Schaffhausen. First recorded in 858 and rebuilt several times, it houses the Historama exhibition, and the Belvedere path and a glass lift lead down to viewing platforms beside the falls.
