View of the Krummturm, Solothurn

Highlight • Monument

Krummturm Solothurn
The Krummturm is a medieval defensive tower in the city of Solothurn. The exact start of construction is not known, but the tower was completed in 1462/63. Although the name suggests a crooked building, this is not correct. Only the roof appears crooked from most sides. The strange roof shape is the result of the irregular pentagon of the tower's floor plan. On the lowest floor there is a 10-meter-deep dungeon in which criminals were once imprisoned. If historical walls could speak, they would have a lot to tell. This includes the Krummturm legend - a tragic love story between the carpenter and the builder's daughter.

Aare River Promenade in Solothurn

Highlight • Settlement

Historic? But not old-fashioned. Solothurn's old town couldn't be more impressive. Romantic alleys, old cobblestones, a magnificent cathedral, excellent restaurants, and a cool shopping atmosphere that's second to none. Not renovated to death, but preserved as a livable place.

Dreibeinkreuz pedestrian and cyclist bridge

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

An architecturally beautiful bridge for cyclists and pedestrians. In the middle of the bridge you can see over the Aare to the crooked tower and the old town promenade.
