Lucerne overview

One of Europe's oldest covered bridges serves as the centerpiece of Lucerne, an ancient Swiss town that is home to fresco-adorned historic houses, Baroque churches and the Bourbaki panorama, a mammoth circular painting. The cutting-edge KKL, a concert hall and art gallery, shows off the city's modern sensibilities. For breathtaking area views, board the cableways up the Pilatus, Stanserhorn or Rigi mountains or take a steamship cruise around the many bends of Lake Lucerne.
