Lichtensteig

The historic market town of Lichtensteig, situated at 640 m above sea level high above the Thur, is the district capital and seat of the court. The exemplary preserved and restored old town center with its narrow cobblestone streets, high arcades and romantic fountains wants to be discovered. Those who hike or bike from here have an ascent to contend with, but are rewarded for it with a far-reaching view.
