Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke)

Europe's oldest surviving wooden covered bridge — a 170m medieval pedestrian bridge of 1333 across the Reuss River, with 17th-century painted panels inside the roof depicting scenes from Lucerne's history. The most photographed sight in Switzerland and one of the most beautiful urban structures in Europe.

🏛️

Old Town Lucerne

A perfectly preserved medieval and Renaissance city center — painted facades, Gothic fountains, arcaded streets, and 13th-century city walls still intact. The Weinmarkt and Kornmarkt are the finest medieval squares in Switzerland; the views from the Musegg wall towers over the lake are extraordinary.
