The ringing church bells of St. Leodegar Hofkirche in Luzern, Switzerland
Used to awake daily to these ringing church bells when I was in Luzern for a week during March. The streets were quiet except for an occasional footsteps of a passerby while in the background, the sound of the ringing bells would be echoing down the streets and against the mountains in the cold dawn.. Decided to go down to the church one day to just record the sound of the ringing bells and bring it home with me.

Die Hoforgel in Vollendung.mp4
Die Grosse Hoforgel der Hofkirche Luzern hatte Ihre Enstehungszeit in den Jahren 1648-1651; weitere Ergänzungsbauten fanden 1862 und 1972 statt. Gemessen an ihrem Alter, ist die Prospektpfeife, das 32'-C mit knapp 10m Länge und knapp 400 kp Gewicht, die schwerste und grösste der Welt. Bei früheren Renovationen wurden viele Pfeifen nicht mehr eingesetzt. Diese originalen Pfeifen sollen nun auf Initiative des Hoforganisten Wolfgang Sieber in einem neuen Echowerk im Chorbezirk wieder eingebaut werden.

เที่ยว Luzern อนุสาวรีย์สิงโตสะอื้น โบสถ์ Hofkirche และ Chapel bridge
Jalan jalan di City Center Luzern Swiss April 2015
Selamat datang di Kota Luzern, disebut juga Lucerne. Luzern, salah satu kota turis utama di Negara Swiss.
City centernya yang sebagian didominasi wilayah kota tua juga seru kok buat jalan-jalan.
Kemarin pas ke Luzern juga sempat ketemu teman yang dulu bareng-bareng di Jeddah. Mereka sekeluarga masih di Jeddah.
Janjian di sekitaran CHapel Bridge. Jembatan beratap kayu yang keunikannya menjadi ciri khas Kota Luzern ini, terbentang secara diagonal di atas permukaan Danau Luzern. Ada lebih dari 100 lukisan dari abad ke-17 dipamerkan di sepanjang badan jembatan yang menunjukkan aktivitas kota Luzern di masa tersebut.
Penting banget foto-foto di Chapel Bridge ini kalau ke Luzern :D.
Geser dikit, kita memasuki wilayah kota tua. Yang bisa kita lihat-lihat di sini :
1. Hofkirche
Menara kembar, khas bangunan gereja dari masa Renaissance. Kami masuk ke dalam, melihat-lihat peninggalan bangunan masa lalu yang masih berdiri kokoh sampai sekarang.
2. Lion Monument
Ukiran seekor singa dalam keadaan sekarat, yang terpahat di dinding batu ini merupakan monumen dari masa Revolusi Perancis. Untuk mengenang meninggalnya ratusan serdadu yang membela Raja Louis ke-16 dalam sebuah serangan.
3. Town Walls
Dinding kota ini dibangun di sebelah utara wilayah Kota Tua, Luzern. Ada 9 menara dengan bentuk berbeda-beda melengkapi bangunan dinding peninggalan abad ke-14 ini.

Hofkirche Luzern
St. Leodegar im Hof
Die Hofkirche St. Leodegar ist eines der Wahrzeichen der Stadt Luzern in der Schweiz. Die Hofkirche ist die Hauptkirche der römisch-katholischen Pfarrei St. Leodegar im Hof, einer der acht katholischen Stadtpfarreien Luzerns und sie ist zugleich die Stiftskirche des Kollegiat-Stifts St. Leodegar. Die Hofkirche wurde von 1633 bis 1639 teilweise auf den Fundamenten der 1633 abgebrannten romanischen Basilika gebaut und ist eine der wenigen Kirchen, die während des Dreissigjährigen Kriegs nördlich der Alpen gebaut wurden und eine der grössten und kunsthistorisch wertvollsten Kirchen der deutschen Spätrenaissance.

Choir rehearsal @ the beautiful Hofkirsche in Lucerne, Switzerland.
I visited the St. Leodegar im Hof in June, 2011. Luckily for me, the choir was rehearsing that day and I just had to sit and listen to their wonderful singing.

Lucerne - a gem in the heart of Switzerland
Goethe described Switzerland as a combination of the colossal and the well-ordered. One is always sure that the trains and letters will be on time. The tidy, just-so precision of Swiss towns is tempered by the lofty splendor of the landscapes that surround them. Fresh mountain air, clear blue lakes and clean cultured cities make Switzerland a dream come true.
A gem at the heart of Switzerland is Lucerne, lapped by scenic Lake Lucerne and surrounded by majestic snow-capped mountains - its striking skyline epitomizes the very essence of Switzerland. It is often considered to be the true Swiss capital. Charming Lucerne has an 'Old Town' center of 15th-century buildings with painted facades, towers, a 17th-century Renaissance town hall, old squares and picture-perfect medieval bridges adorned with rooftop art.
Any tour of Lucerne must begin with the 14th-century covered Kapellbrücke (Chapel Bridge), the oldest road bridge in Europe, angled around the octagonal mid-river Wasserturm (water tower). Constructed in 1333 as a part of the city's fortifications and named after St. Peterskapelle (St. Peter's Chapel), which is located nearby, the wooden bridge has come to stand as the symbol of Lucerne. The principal historical interest of the bridge lay in its collection of double-sided triangular roof ceiling panels, painted by Heinrich Wägmann in 1614 with scenes from the city's historical past and mythological events, including the biographies of the city's patron saints, St. Leodegar and St. Maurice. Each is numbered, and captioned with rhyming couplets, the idiosyncratic local dialect written out in obscure medieval gothic script. The most distinctive image is panel no. 31, which shows William Tell shooting the apple from his son's head.
The water tower - over 34 meters high - was built around 1300 as part of the city wall and used as an archive, treasury, prison and torture chamber. It is Lucerne's landmark and the most frequently photographed monument in Switzerland. Kapellplatz, at the bridgehead of the Kapellbrücke, encircles the tiny 18th-century St. Peter's Chapel, built over a predecessor dating from as early as 1178. Some 150m west is Kornmarkt, site of the medieval public marketplace. On one side, overlooking the riverside market area of Unter der Egg, is the huge Rathaus, completed in 1606 in Italian Renaissance style but crowned with an oddly incongruous Emmentaler-style roof.
The twin needle towers of the church of St. Leodegar, which was named after the city's patron saint, sit on a small hill just above the lakefront. Originally built as a Benedictine monastery in 735, the present structure was erected in 1633 in the late Renaissance style. It is the most important Renaissance church in Switzerland. Especially noteworthy are the façade, Mary's altar (with a relief panel dating from 1500), and the souls' altar. The interior is richly decorated. The church is popularly called the Hofkirche (Hof Church).
Not far from the city center is is one of the world's most famous monuments, the dying Lion of Lucerne (Löwendenkmal), done by Danish artist Bertel Thorvaldsen) in 1819-21. It was carved out of natural rock in memory of the heroic deaths of some 800 Swiss guards who were massacred in 1792 during the French Revolution, when the mob stormed the Tuileries Palace in Paris, where King Louis XVI, Marie-Antoinette and their children took refuge. Mark Twain described the Lion of Lucerne as the saddest and most moving piece of rock in the world.
