Ról ről
Gyors tények: Over 800 people come to see the deeply moving rock relief each day. The sculpture shows a dying lion carved into a sandstone cliff as a tribute to Swiss Guards who died in 1792.
Főbb látnivalók: A stunning detail lies in the lion's expression of pain, symbolizing loyalty and sacrifice; the lion's shield even bears the fleur-de-lis, connecting to the French monarchy. Its quiet riverside setting near a reflecting pool adds a touching atmosphere that feels almost reverent, as if time slows down here.

- Wear comfortable shoes for the walk from the city center along cobblestone paths.
- Photograph early in the morning for fewer people and soft lighting.
