ChurchBad Zurzach is located on the Rhine, in the north-east part of the canton. In the early first century fortresses and a settlement were built here, and in late antiquity two fortresses near a bridge across the Rhine. The ancient name of the place is recorded on the Tabula Peutingeriana as Tenedone. The first discoveries were made already in the 16th century. Throughout the 20th century excavations took place. The objects from the excavations were taken to the Bezirksmuseum in Bad Zurzach.
