The Dying Lion was very interesting. The monument carved into the rock wall is enormous. The part that moved me was the expression on the lion and the serenity of the area (when we visited). It's an attraction that you can view for 5 minutes or an hour. Either way, check it out.

The meaning of the monument, the surroundings just make this a magical and enchanting sight to see. The gardens are gorgeous, the little pond and the close proximity to town make it a must see. Enjoy :)

A nice place to reflect as to what it is all about if you can fid it at a quiet time and just you there as we managed on this trip

Our tour company took us to the Dying Lion monument. The tour director was very thorough in explaining to us the history behind the monument. It's so sad to hear how the brave soldiers lost their lives in protecting the king. I was impressed at the size of the monument. We are told the names of the soldiers are listed... More

Probably the most popular site in Lucerne and well worth the visit. A very moving history behind this beautiful work, take some time to just sit and reflect - not so easy with the hoards of large tour groups.

I have been to Lucerne before but this was the first time that I have seen it...such a touching piece of art...don't miss it.

Such a sad expression on this "lions" face says it all. That war does take lives and that we must never forget those brave soldiers. We saw it while touring the city with a local guide and she was so informational it was well worth the small price. Local hotels can set you up with guides who can tell you... More

A "must visit" in Lucerne. Very poignant and beautiful. Don't miss it as it is not too far away from the train station.

Just a short walk from the city centre is a memorial to the brave Swiss soldiers who gave their lives on French orders, the facial expression of the lion says it all. A true work of art, many good souvenir shops nearby.
