Designed by Bertel Thorvaldsen, a Danish sculptor, and completed in 1821, the Lion of Lucerne is a memorial to commemorate the Swiss Guards who lost their lives in 1792 during the French Revolution. Sculpted in an old stone quarry, this dying lion with a broken spear in its side is one of the most moving sculptures I have ever witnessed.
