Viewpoints and Towers
This collection highlights the historic defensive structures and observation points of Lucerne. It features several towers of the 14th-century Musegg Wall, including the Zytturm with its 1535 clock and the Männliturm. The list also includes the iconic octagonal Wasserturm, a former prison and treasury standing in the Reuss River. Engineering landmarks like the 19th-century needle dam at the Reusswehr demonstrate traditional water management, while various vantage points offer elevated views across the medieval Old Town and the surrounding alpine landscape.
A Water Spike
A needle dam is a weir designed to maintain the level or flow of a river through the use of thin "needles" of wood.
