Luzern Bahnhofquai is a quay and shipping terminal in the city of Lucerne, in Switzerland. It is located at the northwest corner of Lake Lucerne, where the river Reuss leaves the lake and flows north toward the Aare. It is served by the Lake Lucerne Navigation Company. The terminal is located across the Bahnhofplatz from Lucerne's primary railway station.[3]

Layout

[edit]

The terminal has six landing stages, numbered 1–6. No. 1 is near the Seebrücke [de], the stages then continue clockwise around the Lucerne Culture and Congress Centre. Directly south on the Bahnhofplatz are the bus bays of the Lucerne railway station, followed by the station building itself.[4]
