2 Best Sights in Luzern and Central Switzerland, Switzerland

Schwyz's most famous landmark is the Rathaus; its richly frescoed exterior (1891) depicts the Battle of Morgarten, the 1315 conflict in which the Swiss defeated the Austrian army. The building is still used as the Town Hall, and the interior is accessible only on a group tour (in German).

In 1606, the town council held its first meeting in this late-Renaissance-style building, constructed between 1602 and 1606. It still meets here today.
