Johanniterkommende Tobel, Medieval commandery in Tobel-Tägerschen, Switzerland.

The three-wing building complex includes a former caretaker's house, granary, and Bavahaus, representing traditional Swiss architectural elements from the 18th century.

From 1228 to 1809, the Johanniter Order operated this commandery along the pilgrimage route between Constance and Einsiedeln, supporting travelers and religious activities.

The architectural design by Johann Caspar Bagnato in 1744 demonstrates the regional building techniques and materials used in religious structures of Thurgau.

The complex maintains its structural integrity and stands at coordinates 47.5147° N, 9.0358° E, allowing visitors to explore multiple preserved buildings.

The foundation of this commandery resulted from Count Diethelm I of Toggenburg's act of atonement for a fratricide at nearby Castle Rengerswil.
