Kirchberg

Kirchberg has served as a rural parish settlement in the Toggenburg region since the Middle Ages. Set above the Thur valley in the canton of St. Gallen, it belongs to the gently rising country between the river corridor and the pre-Alpine hills. The modern municipality brings together Kirchberg with Bazenheid, Gähwil and smaller settlements, making fields, woodland and working villages integral to its character. Its church-centred origin remains present in the name Kirchberg, German for “church hill”, while the wider Toggenburg has long been shaped by farming and routes through eastern Switzerland.
