Stein am Rhein is a municipality in the canton of Schaffhausen in Switzerland.
The town has a well-preserved mediæval centre, retaining the ancient street plan. The site of the city wall, and the city gates are preserved, though the former city wall now consists of houses. The mediæval part of the town has been pedestrianised and is a peaceful and charming environment. Many of the mediæval buildings are painted with beautiful frescoes and are a must-see for the visitor.
