The Fortress of Luxembourg functioned as a strategically significant military defense for centuries before its dismantling in 1867. The remaining components of the system, along with the old quarters, are recognized for their historical significance.

Key features of the site include the Vauban towers and numerous casemates. These structures serve as landmarks of military engineering and provide insight into the site's heritage as a former stronghold. The surviving fortifications are open for public exploration.
