The monumental Jesuit Church overlooks the Reuss River in the center of Lucerne

The shot depicts the Jesuitenkirche, the Jesuit Church of Lucerne, one of the most important Baroque sacred buildings in Switzerland. Built between 1666 and 1677, the church features an imposing facade with twin towers characterized by Italian-influenced onion domes. The building stands majestically on the banks of the Reuss River, with its architecture reflected in the calm waters. On the left, the Wasserturm Tower and part of the Kapellbrucke can be glimpsed. The sky with white clouds frames this view that combines religious and civic architectural elements in the heart of historic Lucerne. The church interior preserves stuccoes and frescoes of great artistic value.
