In the heart of Switzerland

Geographically, Lucerne lies in the heart of Switzerland; historically, it is the birthplace of Switzerland: Lake Lucerne Region is one of the most diverse vacation and excursion regions in all of Switzerland. Its landscape is shaped by the spectacular world of the Alps, covered with a magical blanket of fluffy snow in winter. Lake Lucerne Region is the «pocket-size region» of Switzerland. No other region offers so many memorable Swiss vacation moments in such a small amount of space.

Lucerne is Switzerland because it encompasses all the merits of our country: The City – The Lake – The Mountains. Whatever you expect from a unique city, Lucerne will not disappoint you. Lucerne will surprise you – again and again. The avant-garde, in the form of the futuristic KKL Luzern Culture- and Convention Centre designed by Jean Nouvel, is just as much at home here as historic buildings which have survived for centuries. The museums, theatres and festivals provide the perfect mix of tradition and trend, archaic customs and high-tech, making Lucerne a distinguished city of culture. Immerse yourself in this town, enjoy the magnificent landscape, stroll along the quays and don’t be surprised when you feel you would never want to leave. Lucerne’s charm is legendary. And we extend a warm welcome to you.
