Lucerne is an ancient town with strikingly modern sensibilities. One of Europe’s oldest covered bridges serves as its centerpiece, and fresco-adorned historic houses line the streets, but it’s also home to the cutting-edge KKL, a concert hall and art gallery. Take the cableways up the Pilatus, Stanserhorn or Rigi mountains for breathtaking views, or see Lake Lucerne on a steamship cruise.

Since 10 years we go about 20 times a year to the different concerts of the Lucerne Festival Orch ( Outstanding) and the Lucerne symphony Orchestra . the acoustic in this Hall makes the visitors of the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg jealous.

The private collection of Lucerne art dealer Angela Rosengart is open to the public since spring 2002. Over 200 important paintings and drawings by more than twenty world famous 19th and 20th century masters (Cezanne, Monet, Matisse, Picasso, Klee, Miro and many others) are on display in a neo-classical building specially remodelled for this purpose. Near the railway station.
This collection was unexpectedly excellent. They have a 35 minute video which is worth watching to learn how the family put together their collection, describing their friendship with many famous artists like Picasso. A gem for art lovers.

Switzerland’s most-visited museum is a place to experience the history of road-, rail, water- and air-borne mobility, as well as that of space travel. Its interactive attractions are sure to win you over – whatever the weather. Switzerland’s largest cinema screen in the Filmtheatre presents documentary films in XXL format. Meanwhile, the country’s largest, most modern Planetarium offers 360-degree flights to the stars. The Red Bull Media World is where you’ll unearth new communication trends. And discover how famous Swiss chocolate is made from cocoa beans at the Swiss Chocolate Adventure visitor experience.
Even if you are travelling without children, there are a lot of fun things to do. Coming from an edutainment background, we really appreciate a museum with lots of hands on activities. The place is segmented into different transportation types, starting with locomotives. In each sections, there aren't just panels to read and buttons to press. There were simulators - the air craft simulator looks fun, it turned 360 degrees, games - there was one screen where you have to try to load a container onto a train, slides! Many other science museums can learn a lot from here. If you're bringing children, half a day may not be enough but fret not as there are restaurants inside.

Unlike the better-known Chapel Bridge, the Spreuer Bridge, further down the river, holds scenes showing Death interacting with human beings throughout history. The bridge is usually less busy so there's more opportunity to take your time and enjoy the details. It is possible to understand how people have experienced and used this bridge since its construction in 1408.

This gigantic panoramic work by Edouard Castres from 1881 is 112 metres long and 10 metres high and is one of the most impressive spectacles in the history of the Panorama medium..It depicts the eastern French army under General Bourbaki during.its memorable escape to Switzerland during the Franco-Prussian War in.the harsh winter of 1871. The internment.of the 87,000-strong battalion is regarded as the largest admission of refugees ever carried out by Switzerland. A sculptured terrain with figures and props is placed in front of the painting, giving the entire scene a remarkable three-dimensional effect. This huge space depicts the huge mass of people as well as many individual fates and humanitarian acts. Edouard Castres, who produced the painting, was an “embedded” artist in a sense as he accompanied the army as a Red Cross volunteer.
This panorama picture with video as well depicts the crossing of French troops into Switzerland when pursued by the German army in the Franco/Prussian war in 1870. It is memorable, fascinating in its detail and really worth viewing for anyone interested in art or history.
