Pfaffnau

Pfaffnau sits in the Wiggertal of Switzerland’s canton of Lucerne, where gently rolling farmland defines the Swiss Plateau. The municipality includes St. Urban, home to the former Cistercian Abbey of St. Urban, founded in 1194 and later transformed into a substantial Baroque monastic complex. Its church, cloisters and elongated convent buildings give this rural community an important cultural landmark beyond the larger towns of central Switzerland. Fields, farmsteads and small settlements shape the area, while nearby cantonal borders connect it with the wider Mittelland.
