Saint-Gingolph is a small town situated on the south bank of Lake Geneva . It sits at the Franco-Swiss frontier, and is administratively divided into Saint-Gingolph, Switzerland and Saint-Gingolph, Haute-Savoie . Its name is derived from the eighth-century saint Gangulphus, who is said to have lived as a hermit in this region. Its division at the Morge dates from 1569: as the municipal Web site explains, it is one town consisting of a single parish with two municipal administrations and two distinct legal systems.
Saint-Gingolph is located a short distance from Évian-les-Bains, Monthey and Montreux. It is accessible by road, rail or boat. Built on an alluvial cone of the Morge, a frontier mountain stream, St.Gingolph is surrounded by mountains and has approximately 8 km of shore-line alongside the lake.
