トゥッゲンの洞窟・トップ14

素晴らしい古い城壁、絶対にお勧めです

ラッパースヴィル城 ラッパースヴィル城は、チューリッヒ湖畔の絵のように美しいバラの街のランドマークです。13世紀初頭に建てられ、その後何度も改築された城は、遠くからでも見ることができます。城は、ラッパースヴィルを貫く丘陵地帯であるリンドゥンホーフの上にそびえ立っています。 改装された城は、雰囲気のあるビジターツアーで訪れる人々を魅了し、城の歴史を巡る魅力的なタイムトラベルへと誘います。 子供たちにとってのハイライトは、城の丘の北側の斜面でしょう。なぜなら、1871年からこの地に住むダマジカが、街の創設伝説を偲ばせるからです。さらに、シカ公園のすぐ下には、クライミングウォールや拡声器などの様々な遊具があり、遊んだり走り回ったりすることができます。 城内の展示も見学可能です。さらに、城の塔からは街と湖の息をのむような景色を楽しむことができます。 テキスト/出典: Tourist Information, Visitor Center, Fischmarktplatz 1, Rapperswil https://www.rapperswil-zuerichsee.ch/de/besuchen/sehenswuerdigkeiten/schloss-rapperswil

Wooden Bridge Seedamm-Weg / Route Pfäffikon SZ - Rapperswil SG "A monumental project at the turn of the millennium," inaugurated on April 6, 2001. The narrow passage between Lake Zurich and Lake Obersee has always been used by local residents to cross the water. Until the Middle Ages, this was done by ferry. After Rapperswil was sold to the House of Habsburg-Austria in 1354, Duke Rudolf IV, the Wise, decided to replace the ferry service with a wooden bridge. Completed in 1358, the structure was 1450 meters long and rested on 546 oak piles. It was 12 feet (approximately 4 meters) wide and designed for pedestrians, carts, and livestock. Toll revenues financed construction and maintenance, with the residents of Rapperswil, the monks of Einsiedeln Abbey, and some farmers from the Schwyz territories of Höfe and March being exempt from the bridge toll. The daring structure was also exposed to various dangers. For example, it was repeatedly damaged or even destroyed during wartime events, and natural forces such as waves and storms also took their toll. For this reason, the planks were not nailed to the bridge structure, and there was no railing. This meant that a storm could not tear down the entire bridge; only the loose planks were blown into the lake. Therefore, crossing the bridge was not a safe pleasure for everyone. In 1939/51, the dam was renovated, and the bridges were reinforced to handle the increasing car, truck, and train traffic. A stroll on the dam's sidewalk had long ceased to be enjoyable. Therefore, the idea of a new pedestrian bridge in the form of the old wooden bridge seemed appealing. The new wooden bridge was inaugurated on April 6, 2001. It is the longest wooden bridge in Switzerland (841 m). It rests on a total of 233 piles.
