Castle Day at Schloss Frauenfeld

Description

The Middle Ages was a wild ride – such an experience awaits visitors on the 11th Swiss Castle Day at Schloss Frauenfeld.

Guests also encounter a Thurgau saint and explore the historic trade routes of the canton. For those who haven't had enough, there's a live interview with a fully equipped mercenary.
