The famous
The most visited historical museum in Switzerland, it includes three cultural history museums and a collection centre.
The landmark
The two towers of the Grossmünster are simply part of the skyline of the Limmat city. By the way, you can climb one of them!
The artistic windows
The Fraumünster church opposite is famous for its magnificent stained glass windows by Marc Chagall and Augusto Giacometti.
The local mountain
The best way to see a city is from above. In Zurich, the "Üezgi", as the locals call their local mountain, is quickly reached and the panorama extends over the city and lake.
The shopping mile
Zurich is world-famous as a shopping destination. The easiest place to shop is on Bahnhofstrasse, where boutiques, department stores and fashion outlets are lined up close together.
The lake
If you haven't seen Lake Zurich, you haven't been to Zurich. And the wonderful Alpine panorama that opens up at Bürkliplatz is unique.
The history
The beautiful green area has been known as a settlement site since 80 BC and is thus considered the historical nucleus of Zurich. Slightly elevated above the Limmat, the Lindenhof is the perfect photo spot.
The centre
The Niederdorf, oriels, narrow alleys, secluded backyards and magnificent guild houses wind their way to the left and right of the Limmat. A must on any visit to Zürich.
The New District
Once an industrial district, today a trendy one: design, culinary delights and nightlife are on the upswing in urban Zürich-West.
The view
The quaint red "Polybähnli" from Cental takes you to the ETH terrace in a minute. You are rewarded with a magnificent view over the Old Town, the city centre and the lake.
With the Zürich Card you benefit for 24 hours from free travel on trams, buses, trains, boats and cable cars in the city of Zürich and the surrounding area, small boat trips and Limmat boats, free admission or discounts in 43 museums, 50% discount on the guided tour of Zürich's Old Town and many other experiences.
