Market Stairs, Lausanne Overview
Market Stairs is a historic wooden-covered staircase connecting Place de la Palud to Lausanne’s iconic Cathedral. Nestled in the heart of the old town, the stairs date back to the 13th century and offer a charming path lined with picturesque views of medieval architecture. It is a popular route for pedestrians. The climb offers a charming view of the market on the east side of the stairway.
All the shops and cafes look tiny allowing a panoramic view, which keeps getting better as you climb up. The staircase is very steep. But, once you reach the destination, you won’t be disappointed. The Cathedral overlooks the whole city, which is an extraordinary site. From the inside too, is one of the beautiful gothic monuments in Europe. This wooden staircase dates back to the 13th century.
