The Nadelwehr or the Needle dam was constructed in 1800s for controlling water level of Lucerne city. We had a quick stop here where our guide explained us how this functions, but didn't have the luck or more so the time to witness its functioning. Would be pretty amazing think. Simple tools put to work effectively !! Great thing is such an old idea of engineering is still functional today.

My husband and I were visiting Lucern with a tour group on our way to a Rhine River Cruise. During a walking tour, we were all delighted to see the Old Town Hall(Altes Rathaus) and the entire surrounding area. The Town Hall was closed but we had a wonderful opportunity to photograph this historic place. According to available information, the Old Town Hall, "is a Renaissance building from 1602, the town hall has impressive masonry, a tremendous roof, and a tall rectangular tower. The tower is a good vantage point from which to survey the crowded market scene on Tuesday and Saturday mornings. Lots of places to see and experience here. Lots of shops and restaurants. Don't miss this area!
