Workation in St. Gallen: the essentials
Monks came first: a 7th-century hermitage grew into the Abbey of Saint Gall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose library holds manuscripts from the 9th century. Embroidery and textiles made the city rich later, and the oriel windows on old town houses still show it. Today the University of St. Gallen, one of Europe's leading business schools, supplies students and founders, and coworking has followed. At around 700 metres it has real winters, and Appenzell and the Säntis are close, as is Lake Constance. The agglomeration has about 167,000 people. Altenrhein's small airport, about 16 km away, has few flights, and the direct train to Zurich Airport is the usual way in.
