    One of the architectural highlights in the municipality of Rorschach is the baroque granary, built between 1746 and 1749. For a long time it was used as a granary and warehouse, including after it was sold to the city in 1908. It was not until the beginning of the 21st century that long-standing plans to convert it were partially implemented. The granary now houses the Museum in the Granary.

      Kornhaus, landmark of Rorschach, built between 1747 and 1749
      The Kornhaus is the landmark of Rorschach. It was built by the master builder Caspare Bagnato on behalf of the St. Gallen abbot Coelestin Gugger von Staudach. With the Kornhaus as a grain storage facility, the port city became the gateway for wheat and grain from southern Germany.
      Today, the Kornhaus houses a museum, offices of the canton's road traffic and shipping office, and a warehouse. The Museum in the Kornhaus (MiK) was opened in 2011 as an experience museum and delights with changing exhibitions. Open April to October.
