Unterwasser

Unterwasser is a small village in the canton of St. Gallen, Switzerland. It is part of the municipality of Wildhaus-Alt St. Johann. It is a relatively small ski resort, and many of its trails are shared with the nearby village of Wildhaus. Unterwasser in English means "underwater" (and may be so translated in automatic translations), but in this context means "between the waters" as two rivers run through the village.

The oldest written record of it is dated October 4, 1152, when Pope Eugene III took the monastery into his protection.
