Meggenhorn Castle is located in Meggen, directly on the shore of Lake Lucerne. The property has a beautiful castle garden. I definitely recommend you visit the castle.

Meggenhorn Castle is situated above Lake Lucerne in Meggen, near the canton of Lucerne. It was built between 1868 and 1870 in the style of French Loire châteaux. Today it belongs to the municipality of Meggen and serves as a museum, event venue, and tourist destination with a beautiful park, chapel, vineyard, and magnificent views of the lake and the Alps.
