The extensive Cistercian monastery of St. Urban is one of the most impressive cultural monuments in Switzerland. It was founded as early as 1194 and since then it has seen a lot: several times, parts of the buildings have been destroyed, rebuilt or rebuilt, sold and used in a wide variety of ways. Today, parts of the former monastery of Lucerne Psychiatry serve as a clinic, other rooms such as the magnificent ballroom are used for events. The library with the carved oak columns and the interior of the church are particularly worth seeing. You can find all information about the St. Urban Monastery at http://www.st-urban.ch/.
