St. Gallen Old Town

In the old town, the artistically decorated oriel windows stand out, bearing witness to the travels of the St. Gallen textile merchants of the 18th and 19th centuries all over the world. They are a reminder of St. Gallen's importance in the linen and embroidery trade. There are more than a hundred such oriel windows in the old town. Some are multi-story, painted, or carved from wood.

St. Gallen Cathedral

Highlight • Religious Site

The impressive cathedral stands on a spacious square, so you can admire its full splendour. The Collegiate Church of St. Gallen was built between 1755 and 1766 and is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The late baroque building with all its details amazes both from the outside and from the inside. St. Gallen Cathedral is on the Way of St. James.
