The Niesen was the subject of a number of paintings by Paul Klee, in which it was represented as a quasi-pyramid.
Every year several stair climbing races are held around the world with the competitors running up the stairs of some of the world's tallest buildings and towers (e.g., the Empire State Building, Gran Hotel Bali), or on outside stairs such as the Niesenbahn Stairway.
