Constructed in 1333, Kapellbrücke is the oldest covered wooden bridge in all of Europe. The truss-style landmark crosses the Reuss River and features a prominent water tower, which was originally constructed as part of the fortification for the city and used later as a treasury, prison, and torture chamber. Named after St. Peter's Chapel, the bridge also features paintings dating back to the 1600s. Unfortunately, several of its artworks have been destroyed over time. Today, Kapellbrücke is one of the most photographed landmarks in Lucerne and makes for a supremely pleasant addition to any itinerary.
Those interested in Russian art, particularly avant-garde art, will be doing themselves a favor by checking out Galerie Gmurzynska Zurich, situated in District 1. The artist roster includes the likes of Kazimir Malevich, Mikhail Larionov, Olga Rozanova, Alexander Rodchenko and Konstantin Rozhdestvyenksy, among many others. Works by artists like Robert Indiana and Andy Warhol, who are associated with the Pop Art movement, are also displayed here.
Offering a panoramic view of the Lake Pfäffiker and the surrounding mountains, Jucker Farm has an ethereal ambiance to it. A great place to experience nature together with your family, this estate offers various packages such as the pick-your-own options, a walk-in goat enclosure and a tour of their beautiful orchards and green patches where you can pick asparagus, pumpkins, strawberries and more. While the playground with rabbits and bundles of straw are a hit with the children, their apple grove is the center of attraction with nearly 6000 trees. The annual pumpkin fair is hosted here from the beginning of September to November and is the largest of its kind in the country. Visit this homestead for a memorable trip.
