A quiet place in the foothills of the Alps
Location
6365 Stansstad
Description
The village of Kehrsiten is located on the southern shore of Lake Lucerne, at the foot of the Bürgenstock. This secluded little village lies directly on the lake, on a steep, wooded rocky slope, and can be reached via a narrow lakeside road or by boat. Hidden behind the rock faces of the Bürgenberg near Stansstad is the Fürigen Fortress: built during the Second World War, it was part of the defense strategy at the time.
