RAPPERSWIL CASTLE-TOUR INSIDE AND THE ROSE GARDEN -NORTH SWITZERLAND. PART 2
The Polish Museum, Rapperswil, was founded in Rapperswil, Switzerland, on 23 October 1870, by Polish Count Władysław Broel-Plater, at the urging of Agaton Giller, as a refuge for [Poland's] historic memorabilia dishonored and plundered in the [occupied Polish] homeland and for the promotion of Polish interests.[1]
The Polish Museum is housed in the Rapperswil Castle, atop that town's Herrenberg. Erected in the 12th century by Count Rudolf of Rapperswil, the castle passed, together with the town, into the hands of the Habsburgs. Rapperswil became a free city (Freie Reichsstadt) in 1415, and eventually joined the Swiss Confederation. Over the course of time, the castle fell into disrepair.
In the second half of the 19th century, the castle was leased for 99 years from the local authorities by a post-November 1830 Uprising Polish émigré, Count Władysław Broel-Plater (a relative of Emilia Plater, a heroine of the same 1830 Uprising), who had been in Switzerland since 1844. At his own expense he restored the castle, and on 23 October 1870, opened there the Polish National Museum.[2]
Except for two hiatuses (1927–36, 1952–75), the Museum has existed to the present day—an outpost of Polish culture in Switzerland, a country which, over the past two centuries, has given refuge to generations of Poles.

A trip to Rapperswil Switzerland
Hi!
We recently visited a charming little village called Rapperswil in Switzerland and we wanted to share it with you. You can easily walk the village in a day, which makes it an excellent day trip. However, if you will like to stay overnight check out the Jakob Hotel it has great views and is in the middle of Rapperswil Hauptplatz. To see more pictures and hotel info, please visit our Instagram page and check out our Switzerland highlights.
During this trip, we took a stroll down the gorgeous cobblestone streets of the city of roses. The village is known for its rose gardens, so make sure you check them out. These are located along the Zurich lake and the Rapperswil castle. Make sure you stop and say hi to the deers! When visiting the castle ensure to walk the outside through the dirt paths, the walk will take you back in time and you will feel like you are in a medieval TV series. The main entrance of the castle connects you to the Hauptplatz (main square). There you will find the main church with a little chapel. The architecture and design will leave you breathless.
There are many churches in the area, however, we found one with a very unique prayer room. This is Capuchin Friary and it is located on the left-hand side (west) of the castle if you go in through the main entrance. Go down the stairs towards the rose gardens and the church is in the middle of the staircases on the right. Inside you will find a very simple small church, however, pass the confessionals on the right and walk towards the altar you will find the Antoniusgrotte. This is dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua and even though is a small grotto, you can feel the peacefulness that takes over your emotions as soon as you walk in. This monastery was established in 1606 and it is still in use.
Want a peaceful walk and leave all the stress behind? Take a walk along Lake Zurich or how about crossing it? Yes, along the side of the castle there are trails that wrap around the town alongside Lake Zurich. If you will like to be a little closer to the lake cross the train station and walk through the university. There you can find the wooden bridge which connects Rapperswil and the village of Hurden. This wooden bridge is the longest in Switzerland and it is a rebuild (April 2001) of the original, which was built 1523 BC. Amazing scenery with a backdrop of mountains all around, a vast lake, and beautiful swans. We hope you enjoy the clip and visit Rapperswil!

RAPPERSWIL SWITZERLAND
2008.06.18 RAPPERSWIL,SWITZERLAND. Rapperswil is located on the east shore of Lake Zurich. It is sometimes referred to as Rappi. The old city is dominated by the castle. The town is considered one of the most significant traffic junctions in the region. The Seedamm, a dam across Lake Zurich, links Rapperswil with Pfäffikon on the other side of the lake. This connection has been part of old pilgrimage routes. The town's main sights are concentrated in the centre and can be seen while strolling through the medieval alleys. The main sights of Rapperswil are its roses, the castle, the reconstructed wooden bridge to Hurden with its bridge chapel, and a Capuchin monastery. There are also a number of churches, chapels, and the nearby Wurmsbach Abbey. Rapperswil is often referred to as the town of roses (Rosenstadt) because of its extensive displays of roses in three designated parks. No less than 15,000 plants of 600 different kinds may be viewed between June and October. There is also a rose garden in the town center, accessible to blind and disabled people. The Rapperswil castle probably dates to the 13th century. Perched atop a hill, it dominates the old town. Deer are kept on lands surrounding the castle. Since 1870 it has been home to the National Polish Museum, created by Polish emigrés (including the castle's lessee and restorer, Count Władysław Broel-Plater).

Overlooking the town, the Rapperswil castle is perched high on a hill and is home to a Polish museum. This top spot additionally offers visitors breathtaking views of the lakeside surroundings. Rapperswil earns its name as the town of roses owing to the more than 16,000 roses that flower in the rose gardens of the Capuchin monastery and on the Schanz. The latter is a rose garden for the blind with particularly fragrant roses, the names of which are written in brail on guide panels.

Rapperswil is a lovely town situated on the southern portion of Lake Zürich, known for its rose gardens, charming old town, 13th century castle and stunning views of the Lake, rolling hills and Swiss Alps in the distance. Runners visiting the Zürich area may want to consider taking the 37 minute train ride from Zürich HB (main station), in order to enjoy a run along the promenade and the longest wooden bridge in Switzerland. In the summer months a post run dip in Lake Zürich is also a treat, so much so locals extend the swimming season from late spring to early fall – brrr. As a bonus after your run you can take the 2 hour cruise back to Zürich on one of the beautiful public boats that allows you to sit back, relax and enjoy all Lake Zürich has to offer. When we have visitors, Rapperswil is one of our top Zürich trips (especially with kids as there are at least 3 playgrounds, paddle boat rentals and a kiddie zoo).
