Tucked along the High Rhine in Switzerland’s canton of Schaffhausen, Neuhausen am Rheinfall is a town whose character is shaped by the force of the Rhine Falls. Where the river drops over a broad rock ledge, the falls are regarded as Europe’s largest waterfall and have long made this stretch of water a major Swiss destination. Neuhausen occupies the south bank, while Schloss Laufen rises above the opposite shore, linking the river setting to a historic castle site. The town also has an industrial legacy: SIG, originally Schweizerische Industrie-Gesellschaft, was founded here in 1853.
