It’s a place where history, art, and spirituality converge. You feel not only a sense of peace, but a connection to the generations of people who have walked these halls, gazed up at the same frescoes, and felt the same breeze from Lake Lugano. The cathedral’s history pulses through the walls—dating back to the 9th century, it has seen countless pilgrims, visitors, and worshippers. The panoramic view of the city and the lake from the terrace is breathtaking. You feel as though time slows as you take in the sprawling cityscape below, framed by mountains.
One of the main attractions to visit - Piazza della Riforma, which has been the heart of Lugano since the 16th century, has been this site of key historical moments. Renamed after the 1830 Ticino political reforms, the square celebrates democratic freedoms and Italian cultural influence. Today, it remains a vibrant hub for social gatherings, public events, and architectural beauty in the city.
