Description
Gotthard tunnel village Göschenen made history with the construction of what was the world’s longest railway tunnel at that time. The Gotthard Tunnel was built from 1872-1882.
The history of the development of traffic across and through the Gotthard is also particularly easy to trace in Göschenen. Mercenaries, pilgrims and traders travelled on the mule path from North to South and vice versa. Later on, the railway tunnel and, after that, the autobahn tunnel transformed the Alpine massif into the European Alpine transversal.
