Degersheim

Degersheim has served as a farming community in the hilly canton of St Gallen since the Middle Ages. The municipality lies near the headwaters of the Glatt, amid rolling uplands between the city of St Gallen and Toggenburg. Its compact centre developed around parish life and local agriculture, while the railway line between St Gallen and Wattwil, opened in 1910, links it with the regional city and the Toggenburg valleys. Walking routes and quiet lanes lead from the built-up area into pastureland, giving Degersheim a rural counterpoint to nearby urban St Gallen.
