The Seebach drains a small part of the Zürcher Weinland as well as the area between Frauenfeld and Seerücken , a landscape shaped by terminal moraines of the Thur Glacier from the last Ice Age. After the glacier retreated, a large area of ​​lake remained at the Hüttwil lakes. This lake was cut by a puncture on a little more than one kilometer by 3 m to the level of 434  m above sea level. M. lowered. As a result, three lakes were created: Hüttwilersee , Nussbaumersee and Hasensee . These lakes now form a nature reserve. It is interesting that the stream drains into the Thur in the eastern retreat direction of the glacier.
