Weinfelden is located in the east of Switzerland on the River Thur

The town of Weinfelden has a very central geographical location - in the east of Switzerland, on the River Thur, opposite Frauenfeld. The town is nestled in the gently rolling hills at the transition between the Thur Valley and the Ottenberg. As the political municipality and capital of the Frauenfeld district, the town belongs to the canton of Thurgau. The town of Weinfelden ranges in altitude from 416 to 684 meters above sea level. As early as 124 AD, a five-metre-wide bridge led across the Thur, making it an important trading center at the foot of the Ottenberg.

With around 11,500 inhabitants, the town of Weinfelden is one of the larger towns in the canton of Thurgau. The town of Weinfelden extends over 15.48 km2.

In 1803, the canton of Thurgau became officially independent through the Act of Mediation by Emperor Napoleon. Frauenfeld became the capital of the canton. Nevertheless, Weinfelden has remained a center of the canton to this day. The seat of the cantonal administrative court in Weinfelden and the meeting of the Grand Council of the Canton of Thurgau (parliament) in the winter months also formally express this fact. The organic development of the town is ensured by steady population growth. Most of the employment opportunities in Frauenfeld are in the service sector and the remaining quarter in industry, trade and construction.
