Photography in St. Gallen
St. Gallen offers a setting you won't find in Switzerland's larger cities. The Abbey District, with its cathedral, historic facades, and famous Abbey Library, is part of the UNESCO World Heritage list — a strong setting for architectural, detail, and city photography. The Drei Weieren above the city deliver landscape and reflection subjects, and on clear days the Säntis rises on the horizon. Our practical sessions draw on this range, from the Abbey District to the Marktplatz and the green recreation areas around the Weieren.
