Hergiswil
Hergiswil is situated on Lake Lucerne, at the foot of Mount Pilatus. The heavily forested eastern slope of the mountain is part of the municipality's territory. The Lake Side Festival, which lasts several days, is held annually in Hergiswil on the shores of Lake Lucerne. The village is also known for its glassworks, Glasi Hergiswil, founded in 1817. Handmade glass is still produced here. The museum in the Glasi is one of the most beautiful museums in Switzerland. In the village itself, the Sigristenhaus is worth seeing. It dates back to the 15th century and is one of the oldest wooden houses in Central Switzerland. The church of St. Nicholas, built in the middle of the 19th century, was designed in Byzantine style.

“Some of the audio guides didn't work. A really lovely exhibition — it was well worth it.”

on Beatenberg paragliding tandem in summer from Interlaken“For me, it was a very good guided tour, even though, as a long-time resident of Einsiedeln (Matura 1964), I already knew quite a lot. On today's visit, I brought along a young man from the neighbourhood who had never been to Einsiedeln before. It was an interesting experience for both of us.”
