Built in 1332, the Capel Covered Bridge connects the two banks of Lucerne. It is an ancient wooden covered bridge in Europe. It was rebuilt after the fire in 1993 and leads to the octagonal water tower, the representative landscape of Lucerne. Like the Mussegger walls, the covered bridge and water tower were part of the Lucerne fortifications. Lucerne's iconic landscape, the Capel Covered Bridge and the Octagonal Water Tower, are iconic buildings in Lucerne, and even in Switzerland, and often appear on postcards. During the day, there are beautiful flowers on the bridge railing; strolling here at dusk, you can enjoy the romantic medieval feelings; at night, the covered bridge and the water tower are extraordinarily romantic under the illumination of the lanterns. So it is also often called "Flower Bridge Water Tower". Covered Bridge Painted Capel Covered Bridge spans the Royce River and is about 200 meters long. There are hundreds of religious historical paintings on the beams under the eaves, depicting the life of the saint who guarded Lucerne and the development history of the ancient city. Octagonal water tower The whole bridge has two turning points, only the water tower was not damaged when it experienced the fire. The water tower was once an outpost to monitor foreign invasions, and was also used as a loot storage room and an interrogation room.
