Tesouros escondidos em Luxemburgo

Hidden Gems in Luxembourg City

Luxembourg City's landscape is defined by its dramatic topography and layers of history. This collection spans from the 17th-century Bock Casemates, a vast subterranean defense system, to the 153-meter-long Adolphe Bridge. Modern additions include the 71-meter Pfaffenthal glass elevator, providing views of the Alzette valley, and contemporary sculptures like the Tall Banker and Sopransolo in the Kirchberg district. These landmarks highlight the city's evolution from a formidable fortress to a hub of modern architecture and public art.
