About Lucerne
Lucerne sits where the Reuss river leaves Lake Lucerne, surrounded by the Alps and the Pilatus and Rigi mountains. The old town is known for its medieval character, the covered wooden Chapel Bridge and the old city walls. The city has long been a centre for culture and music, and its lakeside setting gives it a calm, open atmosphere that many visitors find memorable.
What to watch on the camera
The view is of the old town, so you may see the river, bridges, buildings along the waterfront and boats moving on the water. Daylight hours are the most interesting, especially in the morning and late afternoon when the light falls on the façades. In winter, snow on the surrounding mountains can change the scene, but the actual view depends on the day and conditions.
Visiting and getting around
Lucerne has a temperate climate, with warm summers and cold, often grey winters. Late spring, early autumn and summer are the most popular seasons for visiting. The old town is compact and best explored on foot. Nearby cameras on VizCams show the city's lake and hospital areas, which can help you get a sense of different parts of the city.
