    The former market town of Bad Zurzach features a townscape of national significance. It is not the individual houses that have determined this classification; rather, the special aspect of the historic town lies in the well-preserved ensemble.

    Although the continuous rows of houses give the town a small-town character, Bad Zurzach was never a city and therefore was never surrounded by a city wall. The wide streets and houses with backyards recall the large fairs that brought life to the otherwise rather sleepy town twice a year until 1855.

    Immerse yourself in the world of fairs and admire the beautiful facades and townscapes of Bad Zurzach.
