The image shows the Rathaussteg, one of the pedestrian bridges connecting the two banks of the Reuss River in central Lucerne. The wrought iron bridge, with its elaborate decorative railings and characteristic lampposts, offers a privileged perspective on the old town. On the right stands the Rathaus, Lucerne's historic town hall recognizable by its tower with the red roof. The historic buildings on the opposite bank feature the typical colorful facades of Swiss-German architecture. The blue sky with scattered clouds reflects in the calm waters of the Reuss, creating an atmosphere of serenity in the heart of the city.
