Arbon

Arbon occupies a low terrace on Lake Constance’s southern shore in Switzerland’s canton of Thurgau. The lake gives the town a direct connection to the broad Bodensee shoreline, while its old centre gathers around Arbon Castle, a former medieval stronghold. Arbon also has a significant industrial chapter: Adolph Saurer AG developed from a local textile-machinery business into a major maker of engines and commercial vehicles, and the Saurer Museum preserves that legacy. Waterfront paths, a harbour and lake-boat links make the town an easy stop between the Swiss, German and Austrian sides of the lake.
