Switzerland: St. Gallen - The Collegiate Church

The Collegiate Church of St. Gallen (actually St. Gallus and Otmar) is a Roman Catholic church in the city of St. Gallen in Switzerland. It serves the diocese of St. Gallen as a cathedral, and was since its construction from 1755 to 1766 until 1805 the church of the Abbey of St. Gall. The interior of the Cathedral is one of the most important baroque monuments in Switzerland. The Library at the Abbey is one of the richest medieval libraries in the world. Since 1983 the Church and the Library are an UNESCO Cultural World Heritage Site.
