Kapellbrücke, or Chapel Bridge, is a historic wooden footbridge in Lucerne, Switzerland, spanning the Reuss River. Constructed in the 14th century, it is one of the oldest covered wooden bridges in Europe and features a series of interior paintings dating back to the 17th century, depicting events from Lucerne's history. The bridge was partially destroyed by fire in 1993 but has since been meticulously restored.
