It is located on the eastern Zürichsee respectively western Obersee lakeshore in Rapperswil, a locality of the municipality Rapperswil-Jona in the canton of St. Gallen in Switzerland.

Schloss Rapperswil and the museum are listed in the Swiss inventory of cultural property of national and regional significance as Class A objects of national importance.[1] for further info. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapperswil_Castle ===== The Polish Museum, Rapperswil, was founded in Rapperswil, Switzerland, on 23 October 1870, by Polish Count Władysław Broel-Plater, at the urging of Agaton Giller, as "a refuge for [Poland's] historic memorabilia dishonored and plundered in the [occupied Polish] homeland" and for the promotion of Polish interests.[1] Except for two hiatuses (1927–36, 1952–75), the Museum has existed to the present day—an outpost of Polish culture in Switzerland, a country which, over the past two centuries, has given refuge to generations of Poles. for more info. -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_Museum, _Rapperswil /watch/Y333B1yLZ-8L3 - RAPPERSWIL CASTLE  NORTH SWITZERLAND -TOUR INSIDE THE CASTLE - PART 2 #rapperswil #switzerland #rapperswilmuseum #ShingBase
