Full description

Embark on this captivating self-guided audio tour to discover all the key attractions of Lucerne.

Among the highlights, you'll encounter:
- iconic landmarks such as the Lion Monument and Water Tower;
- prominent locations, including City Hall, Spreuer and Chapel Bridges, Ritterscher Palace and St. Peter’s Chapel;
- vibrant spots like Weinmarkt and Hirschenplatz;
- artistic delights with the Fritschi Fountain and Fritschi House;
- historical buildings representing the Nölli Tower, together with the Jesuit, St. Leodegar, and Franciscan Churches.

Beyond the well-known tourist attractions of Lucerne, you'll see over twenty distinctive frescoed houses. Prepare to be enchanted by a vibrant building that perfectly captures the festive spirit of carnival and feast your eyes on a monochromatic masterpiece portraying a dwarf engaged in the whimsical act of clysterizing the devil.

In addition to the usual destinations explored by most tourists, this tour unveils the distinctive aspects of Lucerne, guiding you to places such as the former places of orphanage, prison, and executioner’s house. This experience is invaluable because it reveals not only the city's picturesque and celebratory side but also some of its lesser-known secrets typically kept from the public eye.

Join us as we unveil more than just the city's main attractions – we'll take you on a journey through time, sharing tales of those who once called this place home. Uncover stories of individuals who amassed great wealth, navigated intense competition, engaged in political intrigues, sought entertainment, and extended a helping hand to others.

We genuinely aspire for Lucerne to be a wellspring of inspiration for you, and this audio guide aims to shed light on its unique character. In addition to the standard tourist portrayal, you'll hear captivating stories, and delve into some of its sensitive and thought-provoking topics.

It was the most disappointing. We were in the proper meeting place and the guide never moved us from that point. We tried over and over with the same results.
