Lilu Buchstaben & Lichtbänke
1

Once again, the well-known Lilu letters stand as a small work of light art on the Kurplatz and wrap the surroundings in warm light.

Since 2023, they have been surrounded by three banks of light that invite you to take a break. Enjoy the unique view over Lake Lucerne and let yourself be enchanted by the play of colors.
