An apartment in Lucerne – living between mountain and lake!

Lucerne is the capital of the Central Swiss canton of the same name. The city with its approximately 75,000 inhabitants is embedded in a typical Swiss landscape: it is surrounded by a magnificent mountain panorama on the shores of Lake Lucerne. Lucerne itself is an attractive city break destination, and the surrounding area invites you to take numerous excursions into nature. The town nestles on the north-western shore of the lake and is cut through by the course of the Reuss, which flows into the lake here below the old town. The townscape is dominated by the medieval Chapel Bridge, which with its gable paintings and water tower is considered one of the oldest covered wooden bridges in Europe. The car-free old town is adorned with historic houses and picturesque squares. Further sights are the Jesuit church, the oldest baroque church in Switzerland, the rampart of the Musegg wall and houses like the richly decorated half-timbered building of the Anderallmend house on the barracks square. Modernity has also long since made its way into Lucerne: The futuristic Culture and Congress Centre designed by star architect Jean Nouvel is an outstanding building of the modern age. All this is just a few steps away from your private accommodation in Lucerne. And: The city is famous for its outstanding festivals and celebrations. The Lucerne Blues Festival is considered one of the most important events of its kind in the world and the Rose d’Or is the largest TV festival in the world. As part of the Blue Balls Festival in July, blues, rock, soul and pop concerts take place around Lucerne’s Bay of Lucerne for nine days – in the open air and on various indoor stages.

Private accommodation in Lucerne – starting point for discovery tours through Switzerland

The city is also the starting point for several classic Swiss excursion destinations. A must is a trip up one of Lucerne’s local mountains, e.g. Mount Pilatus or the Rigi, the Queen of the Mountains. A detour to the Stanserhorn, the Bürgenstock or a steamboat trip on the ramified Lake Lucerne is also worthwhile. Five historic paddle steamers operate a regular service across the lake, which has a shoreline length of over 160 kilometres. The Wilhelm Tell Express, starting in Lucerne, takes you across Lake Lucerne to the foot of the Gotthard Pass and on by train to the Mediterranean Ticino. The “Cherry Road” leads from Lucerne through a landscape of cherry trees and cherry water. All this is on the doorstep of your private holiday apartment in Lucerne.
