"One of Luzern’s most iconic landmarks, the Chapel Bridge is a covered wooden bridge adorned with beautiful paintings depicting scenes from Swiss history. Don’t miss the Water Tower at the bridge’s midpoint, which once served as a prison and now houses a small museum."
Stephen Jiroch
"This is definitely one of the prettiest areas in the city of Lucerne, especially around sunset or sunrise time! The Kapellbrücke is a covered wooden footbridge and is considered to be Europe’s oldest covered bridge! "
