Additional Information

Lucerne is arguably the most well-known city in Switzerland. Encircled by mountains and positioned at the tip of Lake Lucerne, it serves as the launching point for a plethora of journeys. The distinctive cityscape of Lucerne is marked by the medieval Chapel Bridge with its roof, one of the earliest roofed wooden bridges in Europe, featuring unique apex paintings. The Musegg Wall, largely intact in its original fortified state apart from a single tower, is another significant landmark of the city.

The automobile-free old town is lined with historical houses adorned with murals, overlooking charming squares like the Weinmarkt. Lucerne is a city known for its plazas and churches. The Jesuit Church, built in the 17th century, is recognized to be Switzerland’s first sacred baroque structure, and the dual towers of the Hofkirche are vital elements of the cityscape. Carved into the stone in memory of the valiant Swiss who lost their lives in the Tuileries in 1792, the ‘Dying Lion’ is one of Switzerland’s most renowned monuments.
