The Abbey of Saint Gall is a dissolved abbey in a Roman Catholic religious complex in the city of St. Gallen in Switzerland. The Carolingian-era monastery has existed since 719 and became an independent principality between 9th and 13th centuries, and was for many centuries one of the chief Benedictine abbeys in Europe.

6. Old Town Chur Chur
The Old Swiss Confederacy began as a late medieval alliance between the communities of the valleys in the Central Alps, at the time part of the Holy Roman Empire, to facilitate the management of common interests such as free trade and to ensure the peace along the important trade routes through the mountains. The Hohenstaufen emperors had granted these valleys reichsfrei status in the early 13th century. As reichsfrei regions, the cantons of Uri, Schwyz, and Unterwalden were under the direct authority of the emperor without any intermediate liege lords and thus were largely autonomous.

The Swiss town of Arth: between two lakes

Welcome to my comprehensive look at Arth, a Swiss town of 11,000 people on the shores of Lake Zug, in the canton of Schwyz. The town has a beautiful location, being between Lakes Zug and Lauerz, and in almost every view of its streets and buildings there are mountains in the background. As usual in Switzerland, you can get here on public transport by scheduled passenger boat or train from Zurich, Lucerne or Basel, and while there is motor traffic in the town, it is not excessive. There is also a connection here to the “queen of the mountains” cog railway which will take you up the Rigi. Arth is in the heart of Switzerland’s cherry growing area, and kirsch is an important product here.
My film, taken on a sunny day in early spring, shows the beauty of Arth’s lakeside setting, as well as looking at its buildings, ranging from traditional Swiss style architecture to colourful modern designs. It shows a small amount of industry and business, including petrol stations, hotels, restaurants, and a large building site with big cranes working. There are some grand buildings and churches, with apartments on the main streets too. A good place to live!

Lake Schwendisee Toggenburg, St. Gallen SWITZERLAND 山

Schwendisee is a small lake above Wildhaus and Unterwasser on the slopes of the Churfirsten, in Toggenburg, Canton of St. Gallen,The border between the two municipalities runs right through the lakes.
The two Schwendiseen between Gamser- and Chäserrugg located in a sheltered flat moorland of national importance. When the Schwendi glacier about 14,000 years ago melted down, he left the lakes.
You can take a bath in the lake. There is a dock and a raft. The smaller rear Schwendisee is separated from the main lake by a forest strip. Both lakes are surrounded by a dense marsh and reed belt. They are fed by a respective nameless creek. In the lake live tench, perch, pike and leeches. Fishing is allowed for a fee.
Around the lake is a promenade. North of the lake Schwendisee is the Hotel Seegüetli.
