Abbey of St Gall - UNESCO World Heritage Site
A tour of the UNESCO World Heritage Abbey of St Gall, a beautiful monastery and library complex originally founded in the 9th century. The library here is one of the best-stocked in the world, featuring hundreds of texts from before the year 1000! Lots of great stuff to discover, though we were a little disappointed we couldn't film inside the library proper.

聖加侖最著名的建築物，是巴洛克式大教堂(Cathedral)和修道院圖書館(Abbey Library)，圖書館大約有藏書十四萬本，其中一部分是歷經千年的手抄本。富麗堂皇的修道院圖書館，可能是全瑞士最美麗的洛可可風格廳堂。1983年，整個修道院被列入世界遺產名錄。
聖加侖的名字和創建基礎與一位叫加盧斯(Gallus)的愛爾蘭傳教士有很深的淵源，他在公元612年左右修建了一座修道院。從公元747年起，聖加侖修道院就已開始遵循「本篤規條」(Benedictine Rule)，並要求信徒研讀書籍進行潜修，修道院於是便設立了一個圖書館。中世紀時，聖加侖成爲歐洲重要的文化和教育中心。此後，聖加侖修道院得到了國際的認可，開始蓬勃發展。
城市休息室—紅色廣場
瑞士第一座公共休息室位于聖加侖Bleichi地區的戶外。休息室表面覆蓋著一層紅色的橡膠顆粒，照明系統極具藝術特色。這座由藝術家皮皮洛蒂·瑞斯特（Pipilotti Rist）和建築師卡洛斯·馬丁內斯（Carlos Martinez）聯手打造的新奇“城市休息室”誠摯地邀請您前來休閒放鬆(資料摘自Yahoo,瑞士國家旅遊局,維基百科)。

취리히에서 1시간여를 달려 독일, 오스트리아와 인접해 있는 예술의 도시 상트갈렌에 도착했다. 밖으로 돌출된 창이 이색적이고, 집집마다 문양도 다 다르다. 바로크 양식의 이 건물을 보고 있으니 마치 중세의 한 시기로 돌아온 듯한 착각마저 든다. 유네스코 세계문화유산에 등재된 상트갈렌 수도원은 중세 유럽의 학예 중심지였다고 한다. 나는 이곳의 자랑거리인 상트갈렌의 도서관을 찾았다. 시설 보호를 위해 ‘신발을 신은 채 덧신는’ 실내화가 특이하다. “조명 좀 꺼 주시겠습니까? 이 도서관에서는 외부 조명은 철저하게 금지 되어있습니다.” 살아 움직일 것만 같은 벽화. 금방이라도 중세의 언어로 어디에서 왔느냐고 물으며, 불호령을 내릴 것 같다 단순하고 힘이 넘치는 바로크 양식의 도서관 창문을 따라 배열된 책장에는 약 15만 권의 고서들이 보관되어 있다. 나를 더욱더 놀라게 한 것은 이 도서관이 단지 스위스에 가장 오래된 도서관일 뿐만 아니라 지금도 공공 도서관으로 사용된다는 점이다. 중세시대에 제작된 지구본이 내 눈길을 끈다. 다른 대륙의 사람들과 그 지역에 살고 있는 동물들을 생동감 있게 묘사해 놓은 것이 무척 흥미롭다.

Up over an hour from Zurich arrived in Germany, Austria and the city of St. Gallen adjoining art. Protruding out of the window and exotic, each house is also different patterns. So to see this baroque building costs even though illusion of returning to a period of the Middle Ages.
