Introduction to Kapell Bridge: Kapellbrucke, literally translated as "Church Bridge", is a dark brown wooden covered bridge spanning the Reuss River with a total length of 245 meters. The bridge was built in 1333 In 2000, it was also called the "covered bridge" because of its corridors. It is one of the oldest, most uniquely designed and most beautiful bridges in Europe, and is regarded as a symbol of the city of Lucerne.
There are 122 paintings on the top of the wooden bridge gallery, depicting the historical stories of Lucerne and Switzerland; the railings of the bridge are often decorated with flowers, and it looks like a flower gallery from a distance; there is a stone pavilion built in the water beside the bridge The octagonal spire water tower with red roof and white walls is very beautiful. It is said that the water tower has been used as a watchtower, prison and treasury in the past, and now it is a guild hall.
The bridge was destroyed by a fire in 1993. Later, Swiss perfectionist craftsmen recreated the wooden bridge and more than a hundred oil paintings inside the bridge realistically.
