Even today you can still feel the spirit of ancient times here in Aarau historic old town in Switzerland. The city is situated along the river Aare at the transition to the Jura mountains, not so far and easy reachable by train in about 27 - 38 min. Zurich, Basel and Bern. Albert Einstein also once lived in Aarau and went to school here.
