EDITORS COMMENTS
Chapel Bridge, or Kapellbrucke, is an iconic landmark of Lucerne, Switzerland, and a must-see attraction for visitors to this picturesque city. This photograph, estimated to date from the 1920s, captures the bridge in all its timeless beauty. The Chapel Bridge spans the Reuss River and connects the old town with the district of Wygmistal. It was first built in 1333, making it one of the oldest covered bridges in Europe. The bridge was named after the Chapel of the Holy Trinity, which is located at its eastern end. The bridge is adorned with a series of 17th-century paintings on the exterior walls, depicting scenes from Swiss history and legend. The most famous of these is the painting of the lion and the unicorn, which is said to symbolize the coexistence of the Reuss and Pfaffenau families, who controlled the two sides of the river. The bridge's distinctive roof is made up of a series of colorful wooden lanterns, which are illuminated at night, casting a warm glow over the water. In the background of this photograph, you can see the snow-capped peaks of the Swiss Alps, adding to the breathtaking beauty of the scene. The Chapel Bridge has undergone several restorations over the centuries, but it remains a beloved symbol of Lucerne and a testament to the city's rich history. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the bridge was a popular destination for travelers exploring Europe in the 1920s.
