Franciscan Church
Visit a Gothic church associated with Lucerne’s medieval Franciscan community and examine its richly ornamented pulpit. It fits a walk through the historic centre.
This Gothic church brings Lucerne’s medieval Franciscan community into view through its restrained architecture and richly ornamented pulpit. Compare its interior with the nearby Baroque Jesuit Church to see how differently two religious buildings address the visitor. The contrast gives a short old-town church visit a clearer purpose than simply ticking off another façade.
What to look for
Its restrained mendicant architecture contrasts with the Baroque Jesuit Church, making the pair a worthwhile comparison.
Useful to know
