Buchs

The Alpine Rhine defines the setting of Buchs — its broad, level valley places this St Gallen town directly opposite Liechtenstein, with the Alps rising beyond the settled plain. The river is also an international boundary, and the bridge toward Schaan makes cross-border movement part of the town’s everyday geography. Buchs is an important rail stop in the Rhine Valley and a practical base for exploring the surrounding borderland. Nearby, the medieval settlement of Werdenberg is marked by Werdenberg Castle above a small lake; its wooden houses and castle museum preserve a distinctive chapter of the region’s past.
