InterNations - A Place for Germans in Lucerne

Grüß Gott to all Germans in Lucerne! Would you like to meet fellow German expats in Lucerne? Would you like to get insider suggestions from other Germans, e.g. where in Lucerne your hometown team’s next match is shown on TV or where to get roast pork with Knödel?

We would like to invite you to become a member of InterNations Lucerne. As a member of InterNations, you will have access to an active group of German expats, hailing from Berlin, Munich, Hamburg and all regions of Germany.

I was able to connect with other expats in Zurich who enjoy cycling as much as I do and organize weekly rides.

We will take the Titlis Cableway up to the Summit of Mt. Titlis 3,020m. We start with a short walk through the glacier to the Titlis Cliff walk. After 150 heart-pounding steps across (and back) the hanging bridge, we will make our way back to the gondola. On the way back down, we will hop off at T

Why German expats move abroad (& how they like it)

Every year, we publish one of the biggest global surveys among expats — asking them about various aspects of their life, from work to leisure. Learn what motivated our German members to move abroad, what keeps them there, and what they struggle with or miss about home.

They organize everything from dinners to sightseeing to board game nights. For example, you can enjoy nature with the Outdoors Group, share your love of music with the Jazz Group, or go on an adventure with the Boat Trips Group. There’s something for everyone!
