The church of the monastery of St. Gall is a three‑aisled basilica, and it differs from its Early Christian prototypes in the following ways:

a. The cloister (like the atrium) is on the side of the church rather than in front of its main portal.

b. A second apse on the west end of the building.

c. St. Gall had two towers framing the western end of the church, but standing apart from the façade, unlike many other Carolingian basilicas where the towers were integrated into the façade.
