This live camera looks over the old town of Solothurn, one of Switzerland's best-preserved baroque cities on the Aare river. It is useful for seeing current conditions in town before a visit or simply for a quiet look at Swiss city life.
About Solothurn
Solothurn sits on the banks of the Aare at the foot of the Jura mountains, about 30 kilometres north-east of Bern. The old town is known for its long baroque churches, the Saint Ursus Cathedral, and the many fountains and courtyards along its streets. It was once a garrison town and the seat of the French ambassador to the Swiss confederation, and that history still shapes its elegant, orderly look today.
What the camera shows
The picture is aimed at the old town, so you can follow daylight on the rooftops and the rhythm of people and traffic in the streets. Watching in the morning or late afternoon usually gives the warmest light on the facades. Clear days show the mountains to the north, while overcast or misty weather can soften the view. Check the live player whenever you want to see how the town looks right now.
Practical notes
Solothurn has a temperate climate with warm summers and cold, sometimes grey winters, so late spring and early autumn are often the most pleasant months to walk the old town. The city is easy to reach by train from Olten or Bern. From here you can also look at the Solothurn port camera, the Granges airport view and other cameras in the wider region listed on this page.
