Solothurn is known as the most beautiful
Baroque city in Switzerland, renowned for the
architecture favoured by the ambassadors
of the King of France who resided here from
1530 to 1792 – hence its epithet of the “City
of Ambassadors”.
Solothurn is a pleasing blend of Italian
grandeur, French charm and Swiss-German
tradition, and its churches, gateways and
towers all speak of a rich heritage. The city
is compact and easily to explore, home to
internationally important sacred monuments
such as the St. Ursen cathedral and the
Jesuit church. The number eleven plays an
important, mystical role in Solothurn, and you
come across it everywhere – 11 museums,
11 churches, 11 fountains, and more.
