St. Gallen: What Awaits You

St. Gallen is home to one of the finest Baroque libraries in the world — the Abbey of Saint Gall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose ornate library hall has remained virtually unchanged since the 18th century. The city's textile heritage runs deep; for centuries it was the lace and embroidery capital of Europe, and the Textile Museum showcases this tradition. The car-free old town features colourful painted Erker (oriel windows) projecting from centuries-old merchant houses. The nearby Berggasthaus Aescher cliffside restaurant in the Alpstein massif is one of the most iconic sights in Switzerland.
