City Lounge (Red Square), St. Gallen

Highlight • Monument

Switzerland's first public living room is spread out in the open air in the Bleicheli district of St. Gallen. It is covered with red rubber granulate and illuminated by artistic light fixtures. The "city lounge" by artist Pipilotti Rist and architect Carlos Martinez invites you to relax and marvel.

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.

Drei Weieren (St. Gallen)

Highlight • Lake

The Dreiweihern are actually worth a trip. However, the two largest ponds have been drained (maintenance work, probably a few more weeks). Worthwhile, as the pond floor is visible for once.
