In search of traces through Sargans
Sargans is rich in history and culture. Houses and hamlets, churches and chapels, squares and industrial monuments tell us about days gone by. The Sargans culture trail connects the past with the future for locals and visitors alike.
Guided tours familiarise visitors with the historic town, which was founded in the 13th century. There are also picturesque corners and architectural monuments, the medieval Sargans Castle with the Sarganserland Museum and other cultural gems around the narrow streets. Groups, clubs, school classes and individuals can immerse themselves in a world that fascinates, opens up new perspectives and appeals to the mind and heart.
Museum under the open sky
A visit to a museum in honour – buildings, alleyways, churches, factories and chapels are also exciting and interesting on site. The Sargans culture trail takes the history lesson outside. The voyage of discovery leads past cultural and historical sites across Sargans and its hamlets. The individual stations are labelled with boards containing all kinds of interesting facts. They also invite you to travel back in time with food for thought and build a bridge from the present to the past.
Interactive adventure
When the weather is fine, it’s worth exploring the museum trail on foot or by bike. The interactive map shows you where to go. Visit the exciting places – linger and learn something new. The culture trail offers everything you need for an adventurous experience in the fresh air.
Some of the stations can only be visited from the outside, while others allow you to take a look inside. You can find out more about the history of the little town and the development of Sargans in general at the Sarganserland Museum at Sargans Castle.
