찰리 채플린이 이 곳에서 1977년 사망 당시까지 25년을 지냈던 마을로도 유명합니다. 그의 동상을 tripod 없이 찍어서 그런지 올릴 수 없을 정도로 사진이 엉망이네요.
H.R.Giger achieved international fame with his work on Ridley Scott’s Alien. In 1980, he received the Academy Award for “Best Achievement for Visual Effects” for his designs of the film’s title creature and its otherworldly environment.
그런데 지금 이 박물관에 대해 검색을 해보니 영화 에이리언이 그의 디자인이었다는 사실을 알게 되었습니다. 그때 가이더는 왜 이런 이야기는 안해주었는지… 이럴때 정보 없이 여행을 떠나는 것이 후회스럽습니다.

Located at Stans, south of the Lake of Lucerne (Vierwaldensee), the Stanserhorn is a 1898m summit. The funicular was built in 1892 and 1893. The distance was too long to reach the summit from Stans with one funicular, so it was decided to divide the distance in three sections, in fact three concatenated funiculars and two intermediate stations for transfers between the sections!

The Swiss Guards’ honor was put to the test in 1792, when–after trying to escape the French Revolution–King Louis XVI, Marie-Antoinette, and their children were hauled back to the Tuileries Palace in Paris. A mob of working-class Parisians stormed the palace in search of aristocratic blood. More than 700 Swiss officers and soldiers died while defending the palace, without knowing that their royal employers–like Elvis–had left the building.
In the early 1800s, the Danish artist Bertel Thorvaldsen was hired to sculpt a monument to the fallen Swiss Guards. The sculpture was carved in a sandstone cliff above the city center, near Lucerne’s Glacier Garden and the Panorama, and it has attracted countless visitors since its dedication in 1821.
바쁜 걸음을 재촉하며 땅만 쳐다보고 걸어다녔던 나…
지금은 집 가까이에 있는 South Park 그리고 University Park 에서 산책을 하며 의미를 찾고 있습니다.
이른 아침 출근? 산책?
여러분은 어떻게 생각하세요?
