You are in Switzerland so of course the stairs are the main attraction. Jokes aside walking in the old town and being connected to different part of it was a pleasure

We so enjoyed walking around Lausanne when we visited. The stairs and old city are so charming with lots of photography opportunities.

This is a nice area with a steep staircase which leads you to to the cathedral and the surrounding area. Hard work but worth the effort to climb. Its easier coming down!!

Rather a useful than interesting attraction.
This medieval stairway is roofed and that's it. By no means, do not expect something like Chapel bridge in Lucerne.
It's the quickest link between the Lausanne Cathedral above and old town central square Place Palud.

A price of history as well as a shortcut to the open area of old town from the cathedral. You can tell it is old, and you can tell it will last many more years.

It's two minutes of your time, not out of your way at all while you're in the old town, and so much CHARM! It's not the stairs themselves, but the surrounding area, the quaint old buildings, the atmosphere, the thought of so many people before you in time traversing this area, whether by these wooden stairs or the adjacent cobblestone.

We came across these stairs when we got off the metro and were trying to find our way to the Cathedral. They are nice, certainly easier to walk up than using a steep street. Be careful of the handrails; I got a splinter from one of them.

Lausanne is fascinating among other things due to its being so vertical. From elevators from one street to another to the stellar views of the lake from many vantage points, the shape of the city kept delighting us. these stairs, which lead from the pedestrian shopping district to the cathedral, are a delight.

These are wooden steps covered by a wooden roof leading up to the cathedral. It is very picturesque. There are also cobblestone steps running parallel to these steps.

If you are visiting the Cathedral, you can either take these stairs to get there and/or see them from outside the cathedral. Since I had seen these in photos before, it was interesting to walk them and know you've seen it in person. Not at much going on in this locale at the time we were there, however.
