KKL
Jean Nouvel's architectural masterpiece. Сoncert hall with a capacity of 1700 people, has become an emblem of the city. The imposing and elegant roof stretching over the lake serves to bring clearly distinct architectural features together: the Concert Hall, Lucerne Hall, conference rooms and art museum. -
The Arch
The arch you are standing next to is all that remains from the old station. It was the main entry portal. -
Chapel Bridge
The world-famous wooden bridge is the most photographed spot in Lucerne. -
Fritschi fountain
There is a legend in Lucerne about a fun-loving farmer named Fritschi. Every business trip to Lucerne ended with him visiting taverns and having fun. He bequeathed all his money to one of the guilds to serve wine to the poor during carnival. To this day, the guilds fulfill his wish. -
Musegg Wall
Lucerne began building the city fortifications in the 13th century - a symbol of power and domination!The towers and the Musegg wall are opened from 1 April to 1 November. -
Lion Monument
Have you ever heard the expression: "No money, no Swiss"? it's not about the banks at all. The mercenaries are the history and the present of Lucerne. We'll talk about how it all began at the most mournful and moving piece of stone in the world. -

More about me
I learned to read at the age of five and quickly fell in love with fairy tales.
For 11 years, I studied the cello at the same school Oistrakh graduated from in Ukraine.
My favorite subject in school was history, my true passion. I dreamed of becoming an archaeologist, but I graduated from the acting faculty and worked as an actress in the theater.
In 2008, I moved to Venice and gained experience in travel companies hosting tourists throughout Italy, France, and Switzerland. So, even before I moved to Lucerne, I knew Switzerland very well!
In 2015, I received my guide license in Venice.
In 2020, I moved to Switzerland, which is now my home. Here, I have my family and continue to work as a guide.
I promise not to overwhelm you with too many dates and names.
See you soon!
