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.

“What an incredible experience with Sedrick and Jonsi. The longer flight was worth it and the videos and pictures were incredible. An experience of a lifetime, thank you two.”
