bericht van Tanya Deans

The "Kapellbrücke" crossing the Reuss river in the Lucerne old town is the oldest wooden covered footbridge in Europe.

Location: Kapellbrücke 1, 6004 Luzern • 5 min walk from Luzern train station

Open: always open, free to visit

It's the most iconic photo spot in Lucerne, lined with beautiful flower boxes with a background of the charming cityscape. When you walk across, don't forget to look up at the triangle paintings on the roof beams, the main attraction.

It was originally built in 1365. It almost burned down in 1993, in a fire that destroyed the majority of interior paintings. It was reconstructed and now is open to the public.
