Geographical setting

Brunnen is a locality in the political municipality of Ingenbohl on Lake Lucerne, in the Schwyz District of the canton of Schwyz, Switzerland.

Culture

St. Leonhard Parish Church was built in Ingenbohl between 1658 and 1661, replacing a chapel dating from the late 15th century.

The section of Lake Lucerne between Brunnen and Flüelen is described as a landscape with steep shores, striking rock formations and a fjord-like character; it is connected with Swiss history.

Brunnen developed as a medieval settlement on the lake, where fishermen and boatmen lived. Its importance grew with the Gotthard route: Brunnen became the port of the Schwyz region and a transshipment point for the livestock trade with Ticino and Italy.

Tickets for boat trips on Lake Lucerne are available at Brunnen railway station from spring to autumn. Departures to Weggis, Vitznau, Brunnen and Flüelen operate from Pier 1.
