The town of Brunnen is on Lake Lucerne in the Swiss canton of Schwyz. It was here in 1315 that the cantons of Uri, Schwyz and Unterwalden were joined together. This historic site is one of Switzerland’s most popular resort areas. Whether you are here for a vacation or just a weekend, Brunnen has plenty for you to see and do. Guests staying in Brunnen hotels can go on excursions on the lake, or ride the Urmiberg cable car. Brunnen is the starting and ending point of Weg der Schweiz (the Swiss Trail) around Lake Uri, one of the most beautiful hiking trails in Switzerland. Brunnen has a small Baroque church called Bundeskapelle, which has an altarpiece painted by Justus Van Egmont, a pupil of Rubens. Brunnen is a great base from which to tour this part of Switzerland.
