Walking
If you are in the heart of Old Town, head towards the Reuss River. Look for the famous Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke) and cross it. Once across, turn left and stroll along the riverbank towards the Jesuitenplatz. You will pass by some charming shops and cafes. Jesuitenplatz is just a short walk down the road, and you will recognize it by the beautiful Jesuit Church (Jesuitenkirche) that sits at one end of the square.
Public Transport (Bus)
If you are farther away in Old Town, you can take a bus to reach Jesuitenplatz. Look for the nearest bus stop, such as 'Bahnhof' or 'Hirschmattstrasse.' Catch bus number 1 or 2, which heads towards the 'Perron' stop. Once you get off at 'Perron,' it's a short 5-minute walk to Jesuitenplatz. Head down the street following the signs to the Jesuit Church, and you'll arrive at the square.
