The dying Lion of Lucerne is one of the world’s most famous monuments. It was carved out of natural rock in memory of the heroic deaths of the Swiss mercenaries at the Tuileries in 1792. His size is colossal, his attitude is noble. His head is bowed, the broken spear is sticking in his shoulder, his protecting paw rests upon the lilies of France. Mark Twain described the Lion of Lucerne as the saddest and most moving piece of rock in the world. | Unsolved Mysteries & Paranormal Activities
