Switzerland: Abbey of Saint Gall

On Wednesday I got eleven postcards including one from Switzerland.

The card from Switzerland shows the Abbey of Saint Gall in St. Gallen. St. Gallen is the capital of the canton of St. Gallen and is considered to be the centre of eastern Switzerland. The Abbey of Saint Gall was once one of the most important monasteries in Europe. It is known for its rich library. The Abbey of Saint Gall is since 1983 on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
