Hof Church, main cathedral for the city population, is the most important Renaissance church building in Switzerland.
The famous Chapel Bridge and the Water Tower which is Lucerne's trademark and the most photographed monument in Switzerland.
This 34-meter octagonal tower was built around 1300 as part of the city wall.
The bridge was constructed during the first half of the 14th century. Painted roof panels were added in the 17th century, illustrating scenes of Swiss and local history. Mid 1993 a big fire burnt down nearly the whole bridge, sparing both ends. The bridge was then reconstructed
but unfortunately many of the precious paintings were unable to restore.
