Sargans

Tucked between Mount Gonzen and the upper Rhine Valley, Sargans is a place whose character is shaped by its position where Alpine routes and valley floor meet. The compact town lies in the canton of St. Gallen, close to the border with Liechtenstein and the meeting point of the Rhine and Seez valleys. Schloss Sargans, a medieval castle above the centre, preserves the town’s most recognisable silhouette and houses the Sarganserland Museum. Gonzen also has a long association with iron mining, an industry that helped define the local economy for centuries.
