Salesianum Zug
Historical landmark
👍👍 Thank you very much for the beautiful, worthy fireworks display on August 1st - it had style and character! Great, there are still people in our country who invest and spend money, uphold traditions and don't allow themselves to be influenced by pathological prohibition fanatics!

Luegislandturm

👍 Nice place to go to get a nice view of the Luzern city. The other good view point is from Castle Gutsch which is on a greater height and on the other side of the river. The entrance to the tower is free and it is a good photopoint . You also get views of the KKL and the Pilatus from here.

Torbogen Luzern
Historical landmark
👍👍 It seems like the front is a classic style of art. The back side, next to the train station, is a modern style. It's an important hi-light point when arriving at the station. The basement has a variety of shops offering food, clothing, and fashion.

Fritschibrunnen
Historical landmark
👍 When passing through the old town, it is easy to be attracted by this colorful historical landmark. Later I learned that although it was completed in October 1918, it is still a post-Renaissance building. The designer was Seraphim Weingart, the founding director of the Luzern School of Applied Arts....

Morgartendenkmal
Historical landmark
😐 Site of the historical battle of Moorgarten in 1315 between the confederates and the Hapsburgs. The latter where ambushed by the confederates luring in the hills and woods above lake Ägeri. The monument itself is quite humble. If you pass by, you can stop here but it‘s not a must.
