The monastery can also be visited in its inner courtyard. From the monastery terrace there is a wonderful view over Lake Zurich to the islands of Lützelau and Ufnau.

It is no coincidence that Rapperswil has earned the name Rose City thanks the more than 20,000 roses that bloom from May to October in the rose gardens near the Capuchin monastery and on the Schanz.
