About Gommiswald
Gommiswald is a village of a little over 2,000 people at around 590 metres, about 4 km east of Uznach in the canton of St. Gallen. Half the old commune is forest and most of the rest is farmland, so walks start from the door. On the Üetliburg hill nearby, a chapel rebuilt in the 17th century and the Premonstratensian abbey on Berg Sion form a listed heritage site. Evenings are village-quiet. Homes here sleep eight across four bedrooms, with a garden and a fireplace.
