Lucerne, Switzerland - 4th September 2012
Hi, I like to show you the wonderful city of Lucerne. It's really a very beautiful city. ...let's have a look: That's a very new building. It's the new University of Lucerne. It opend last year. The beautiful Lake Lucerne... ...with one of its famous steamer. The KKL (Kultur- und Kongresszentrum Luzern). The Wagenbach Fountain in front of the KKL. The world famous Chapel Bridge (Kappelbrücke). The Chapel Bridge is a covered wooden footbridge spanning diagonally across the Reuss River. As part of the bridge complex, the Chapel Bridge includes the octagonal 43 m tall Wasserturm, which literally translates to "water tower". The Kapellbrücke almost burned down on August 18, 1993, destroying two thirds of its interior paintings. Shortly thereafter, the Kapellbrücke was reconstructed and again opened to the public on April 14, 1994 for a total of $2.1 million dollars A very nice painted house. It's the Fritschi-House or also the "Swiss House of carnival". It tells not only Fritschi's history, it also reflects the Lucerne Carnival. ...and the Fritschi-fountain. That was my city walk. I hope you enjoyed it.
