Sankt Nikolaus is especially worth a detour for the magnificent view: directly below lies the monastery island of Rheinau, and the view also sweeps over the Rhine, which flows here in a loop, and the adjacent vineyards.

The short detour across the bridge is worth it. Immediately after the bridge, turn left to a parking lot. You'll be rewarded with a wonderful view of the Schaffhausen riverbank and the fortress.
