点评:I was born and raised in Luzern. And this museum is a childhood favorite. And is until today. I was here countless times. Many times with my students as well. So was this time.
The Gletschergarten is a unique natural monument and museum located directly next to the Lion Monument in Lucerne. Discovered by accident in 1872 during cellar excavations, it features spectacular pothole formations created during the last Ice Age around 20,000 years ago by glacial meltwater. Aside from the impressive geological rock formations, the site features a popular historic mirror maze called "Alhambra," which was built in 1896. A recent major expansion, the Felsenweg (Rock Path), takes visitors deep into the subterranean sandstone mountain through a dramatic, multimedia-lit cavern system.
Over the past 40 years it changed a lot. Displays changed, more multi-media and also more of a sensory experience. It's great to see the museum keeping up with the times and to constantly update the exhibits.
The new Felsenweg is an impressive experience. You will walk up to the very top (to the tower) through a cave system with many infos and displays. A very unique experience and a fantastic addition to the museum.
The views from the top are fantastic. Make sure to get to the top of the viewing tower as well. Up here there's also space for a nice picnic.
The Spiegelsaal is another highlight (the mirror maze). It used to be located in the house, but was relocated. It also used to be a lot bigger, but due to all other renovations and extensions it was made smaller - I enjoyed the older, bigger one though.
And of course there are the geological rock formations. The biggest one roughly 9 meters deep. Very impressive and tells a great story of time through the different ages of the area.
Together with the Verkehrshaus, this museum here is definitely a must-do. Staff was really fantastic and helpful as well. Surely we'll be back.
翻译:我出生在卢塞恩,也在那里长大。这家博物馆是我童年时代最喜欢的地方,直到今天依然如此。我来过这里无数次,也曾多次带学生来,这次也不例外。
冰川花园(Gletschergarten)是一处独特的自然景观和博物馆,紧邻卢塞恩的狮子纪念碑。它于1872年在一次地窖挖掘中被意外发现,以其壮观的壶穴地貌而闻名,这些壶穴是由大约2万年前的末次冰期冰川融水形成的。除了令人叹为观止的地质岩层,这里还有一座名为“阿尔罕布拉宫”(Alhambra)的著名历史镜迷宫,建于1896年。最近一次大规模扩建工程——岩石之路(Felsenweg)——带领游客深入地下砂岩山体,穿过一个引人入胜、灯光璀璨的多媒体洞穴系统。
在过去的40年里,这里发生了巨大的变化。展品焕然一新,采用了更多多媒体技术,也更加注重感官体验。很高兴看到博物馆与时俱进,不断更新展品。
新建的岩石步道 (Felsenweg) 令人印象深刻。您将沿着洞穴系统一路向上,最终到达塔顶,沿途会有许多信息和展品。这是一次非常独特的体验,也是博物馆的一大亮点。
塔顶的景色美不胜收。一定要登上观景塔顶。那里还有适合野餐的宽敞空间。
镜子迷宫 (Spiegelsaal) 是另一个亮点。它以前位于主屋内,后来被移到了现在的位置。它以前也更大,但由于其他的翻新和扩建,现在缩小了——不过我还是更喜欢以前那个更大的版本。
当然,这里还有各种地质岩层。最大的岩层大约有 9 米深。非常壮观,讲述了这片区域不同时期的变迁故事。
与交通博物馆 (Verkehrshaus) 一起,这座博物馆绝对是必游之地。工作人员非常热情友好。我们一定会再来的。
