Fortifications and Ruins

Luxembourg City’s formidable military history earned it the moniker 'Gibraltar of the North.' This selection highlights the remnants of its UNESCO-listed fortifications, including the Bock Casemates' 17-kilometer network of subterranean tunnels and the 18th-century Fort Thüngen. Key architectural features include the iconic Spanish turrets—watchtowers dating back to the 17th-century Spanish occupation—and the rock-cut Saint-Quirin Chapel, which sits adjacent to a spring once believed to have healing properties.
