Had seen pictures of this for years and was so excited when I finally was able to visit it in person. It is amazing!! The park area is smaller than I thought---but still.... just beautiful

It is a very sad monument to fallen Swiss soldiers in the 1700’s but has more meaning once you learn about the story from the history museum. Visit here first and then come back and view the monument with a fresh perspective.

We visited the Lion Monument once again on our most recent visit to Lucerne. This is a "must see" experience when visiting the city. Unfortunately, it is often very crowded with tour groups and visitors.
We always walk here from the old town. It is an easy walk but you must cross several busy streets to get here safely. If you visit during a quiet time it is a wonderful place to sit, relax, and contemplate.

I am not sure I would make a special trip to see it, but if you are in the old town area, it is worth a visit. It won't take long to see and snap a few photos. Read the story behind it before you go... it makes it more meaningful.
