Ice Palace - Jungfraujoch
About
Perched at 3,454 m above sea level, the Ice Palace is part of the Jungfrau’s iconic Top of Europe complex. Visitors descend the historic Jungfrau Railway to the highest railway station in Europe and are welcomed into a dazzling cavern of ice sculptures crafted by artists since the 1930s. The Palace is surrounded by the Aletsch Glacier—the world’s longest glacier—making it an extraordinary blend of natural wonder and artistic display. Beyond the ice, the plateau offers panoramic vistas of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains, the picturesque Sphinx Terrace, and a variety of family‑friendly activities such as snow fun parks and multimedia tours. Whether you’re exploring the sculpted corridors, stargazing in the cold air, or simply taking in the 360‑degree views, the Ice Palace delivers a memorable alpine adventure that appeals to nature lovers, history enthusiasts and thrill‑seekers alike.
