Geheimtipps für Luxemburg

Luxembourg's Hidden Gems

Luxembourg’s landscape features the 17-kilometre Casemates Bock tunnel system and the double-decked Adolphe Bridge. Northern regions house the Romanesque Vianden Castle and the ruins of Esch-sur-Sûre. In the Mullerthal region, the Schéissendëmpel waterfall flows under a stone bridge, while Beaufort offers both medieval ruins and a Renaissance palace. Modern engineering is represented by the glass Pfaffenthal elevator, providing views of the Alzette Valley, and the 19th-century Walferdange Castle serves as a central historical landmark.
