Tips for staying in Zug 

History in Zug 

Founded in the early 13th century, Zug contains an abundance of history and culture. Altstadt (the ‘Old Town’) dates back to this period and is the heart of culture within the city. Built in the 1470s, Zytturm (the city’s clocktower) takes centre-stage in Altstadt at 52 metres high. A key to the historic monument can also be obtained by visitors who want to take a look inside (especially at the dungeons!). Another 15th century building to visit during your stay in a Zug serviced apartment is the Church of St. Oswald – built by locals in 1478, the late-Gothic church is a perfect example of the local and cultural history waiting to be discovered in the city. Also in Altstadt, the town hall is a Gothic monument built around 1505 – the former court room is decorated in a beautiful baroque-style and tours of the building are available. No matter where your apartment in Zug is located, Zug has plenty to offer history-buffs.
