The historic Wasserturm Tower and Kapellbrucke Bridge at dusk over the Reuss River in Lucerne

This shot captures one of Switzerland's most iconic views: the Wasserturm Tower and Kapellbrucke Bridge stand against the twilight sky in Lucerne. The octagonal stone tower, dating back to the 13th century, served as an archive, prison, and torture chamber throughout its history. The Kapellbrucke, Europe's oldest covered wooden bridge built in 1333, crosses diagonally over the Reuss River connecting the old town to the new. In the background stands the majestic Mount Pilatus with its snow-capped peaks, while the Jesuit Church with its twin towers dominates the lakefront. The evening lights reflect in the calm waters of the river creating a highly evocative atmosphere.
