St. Gallen Abbey Library from Zurich with Chauffeur

The Abbey Library of St. Gallen is most comfortably experienced from Zurich with a private chauffeur and door-to-door service: we pick you up at your address and drop you off directly in front of the abbey precinct, with no changing of trains and no hunting for parking. On arrival, you step into one of the most beautiful library halls in Europe. Beneath the sweeping Rococo vaulting, supported by stuccowork and wood-panelled galleries, rest centuries-old manuscripts that established St. Gallen’s reputation as a center of medieval book culture. The entire abbey precinct, with its cathedral, abbey archive, and Baroque hall building, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Those who wish can combine the visit with a stroll through the historic old town, with its oriel windows and narrow lanes. Your chauffeur waits in the meantime and stays flexible, should you wish to linger longer. That way the day stays calmly paced, entirely at your own tempo and without the pressure of a fixed return schedule.
