Axenstrasse
The Axenstrasse is an segment of the A4 motorway and European route E41 between the resort of Brunnen in the Canton of Schwyz, to the municipality of Flüelen in the Canton of Uri in Central Switzerland. The road is built along steep cliffs on the east side of Lake Lucerne, weaving through many rock fall galleries and tunnels along its route. Upon completion in 1865, the Axenstrasse was the first way to get to Uri that did not involve navigating Lake Lucerne.〔
==History==
The route between the Axen Mountain and Flüelen existed in 1776 as the ''Landstrasse'' (country road). Construction on a new road to connect Flüelen to Brunnen began in 1861, and was completed in 1865. It was named the Axenstrasse because the road is located along the Axen Mountain.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Axenstrasse )〕 The route, especially in the part south of Sisikon, involves many open passages with rock galleries and numerous openings in the west tunnel walls viewing Lake Lucerne as a result of the tunnel blasting through the calcareous rock.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Axenstrasse )〕 The road cost 842,000 francs, half of which was paid for by the federal government of Switzerland.
Between 1937 and 1939, the Axenstrasse was altered to suit modern traffic in lieu of horse-drawn carriages, and a lane in each direction for road traffic was paved. Many sections of the Axenstrasse were also closed to automotive traffic to serve as hiking trails.〔 The Axenstrasse was again renovated between 1975 and 1990.〔
