Wil is a historic abbey town in the canton of St. Gallen and is considered the gateway to Toggenburg. The best-preserved old town in eastern Switzerland impresses with picturesque half-timbered houses, romantic arcades, and the monumental Hof zu Wil. A spacious pedestrian zone borders directly on the traffic-calmed old town, and the distinctive Wiler Tower offers panoramic views from the Lake Constance region to the Alps. Thanks to its central location, Wil is a popular destination for day trips in eastern Switzerland.
