You can climb in thee of nine towers, you have a magnificent panorama of the town and you can walk on the wide wall between the last two towers opened to the public.

It was a nice walk along the old city wall and visiting different towers. The tower with the clock mechanism was the most interesting. While walking from one tower to another you have a possibility to look at Luzern from different perspectives.

On a cloudy day, we visited this place. Climb: Very very steep, Even though it’s not that tall (probably same as about 10-15 floor building), but century old & big staircases made it worse.

The grounds inside the walls are beautiful as are the views from the top of the walls. A climb up some steep steps gets... More

There is an extreme amount of walking and due to restoration only 3 of the towers were open. One tower is extremely steep, lots of narrow stair,I would not take small children. The clock tower was very interesting to see all the elements that make it work. In total, the view was most enjoyable. We excited on the school side... More
