Lucerne has been given many names: the City of Bridges, Music, Squares and Churches has inspired painters, poets and composers to produce great works of art.
But most of all, it is the 'City of Lights'. Legend has it that an angel cast a light upon a place and told the fishermen to build a chapel in honour of their patron St. Nicholas. Later, the chapel became part of the monastery 'Luceria', hence the name Lucerne.
The St. Leodegar monastery was first mentioned in 840 and it was not before 1178 that the parish was transferred from the monastery to a town. Today, the once small fishing settlement has grown to a city of over 80'000 residents.
Lucerne is the first city that joined the Everlasting League of the 'three forest cantons' in 1332. Legendary landmarks representing facts and legends dating back more than 700 years can be found all over the Lake Lucerne region.
And last but not least, Lucerne is a favorite by music connoisseurs for its outstanding classical concerts. The exceptional acoustic quality of the KKL's music hall brings the world's best musicians and conductors to the city.

A stroll through the Old City of Lucerne
Lucerne is compact and small enough to be easily explored on foot. The pretty scenery and sights can be visited on a leisurely stroll, starting at the centrally located railway station, a striking modern building.
Cross over the 'Seebrücke' to the northern part of the city and meander through the cobbled streets and irregular lanes with its multitude of squares and corners. Many of the fine medieval and renaissance buildings are elaborately painted.
Stately hotels along Schweizerhof-, Nationalquai and Haldenstrasse bear witness of Lucerne's early role as a tourist town. Cafés and Restaurants on the Reuss River along Rathausquai and the chestnut tree lined upper promenade of 'Unter der Egg' invite to linger on.
Lucerne's Wooden Bridges
The most prominent bridge is the Kapellbrücke or Chapel Bridge with its tilted roof, zigzagging over the River Reuss from the Rathausquai to Bahnofstrasse and the Jesuit Church. The bridge was erected in 1333 as part of Lucerne's fortification; it had to endure more than one fire, the last one in 1993. The original triangular paintings in its gabled roof - added in the 17th century - illustrating religious legends and historic events of both - Lucerne and Switzerland - suffered severe damage during the fires and most of them are now replicas.
The Chapel Bridge is flanked by an octagonal stone tower that predates the bridge by a few years. The tower served one time or another as a watch tower, then archive and treasury. In the middle ages, one of the rooms was a torture chamber and a jail - the latter a room in complete darkness.
The Spreuer Bridge or Mill Bridge ('Spreu' meaning chaff in English), built in 1408, got its name from the custom of throwing chaff from wheat and leaves into the river from this bridge. It links Mühleplatz right beneath the Musegg Wall with the Museum of History on Kasernenplatz and the Museum of Natural History on Pfingststasse. The Spreuer Bridge paintings depict the 'Dance of Death' and were created between 1626 and 1635.
The 'Nadelwehr' (Needle Dam) is not a bridge but it's an interesting spot to observe how Lucerne's water level is regulated. The dam is directly attached to the 'Spreuer Bridge '. The 'needles' (wooden blanks) are removed and re-set by hand depending on the water levels.
Lucerne's Downtown Churches
Take a rest in the coolness and splendor of the ornate Jesuit Church (former Jesuit college and dedicated to St. Franz Xaver).
The Franciscan Church right behind the Jesuit Church is a fine example of Gothic architecture - both are located on the 'railway station' side of the River Reuss.
The Hof Church (dedicated to the city's heavenly patron St. Leodegar) is on the north shore and its prominent pointed spires of the bell towers can already be seen from the 'Schweizerhofquai'. Particular pretty are the carved choir stalls and gothic altars. The Hof Church is famous for its organ concerts. St. Leodegarstrasse 6.
The small 18th century St. Peters Church at the Kapellplatz (right next to the Chapel Bridge) is often used as a wedding chapel.
Lucerne is predominately catholic and it wasn't before the 19th century, that the protestants were permitted to build their first church, the Matthäus Kirche on Hertensteinstrasse 30 (behind Hotel Schweizerhof). The other downtown protestant church is the Lukaskirche on Morgartenstrasse 16 (close to the train station).
Churches are closed during the main dates of the Lucerne Carnival.
City fortification and Lucerne Towers
Grand Casino Luzern Dress Code 2019
The Musegg Wall with its 9 towers is a well preserved, 800 meter long city fortification. Walk up along the wall and climb at least one if its towers, for example the 'Männliturm' for yodel-ready vistas.
Open to public are three more Lucerne Towers:
- The 'Schirmertower' houses a small café;
- The 'Zyttower' (Zyt meaning time) has the city's oldest clock and therefore the privilege to chime one minute before all other town clocks;
- The 'Wachtturm' is the former storage tower for gunpowder.
From a tactical point of view, the fortification wall was a failure. Cannons that could have destroyed the walls have already been in use at the time of completion in the 14th century, but the wall sure makes for a good sight.
The Lucerne towers are mostly maintained on a voluntary basis by clubs and guilds who rent them from the city.
There are guided tours to all of the towers organized by the tourism office.
The Lion of Lucerne
The Lion of Lucerne is Switzerland's oldest figurative sculpture. The moving statue of a dying lion carved into a Rockwall in 1821 has become Lucerne's main tourist attraction so don't expect to be the only visitor. It serves as an allegory to honour the Swiss Guards, which were slathered during the storm on the Tuileries, August 10th 1792. It even inspired Mark Twain for moving words. Glacier garden and Mirror maze are right next to it.
Denkmalstrasse 4.
