CAPITAL

Vibrant and cosmopolitan Luxembourg is a small, but dynamic and cosmopolitan city. With people hailing from more than 170 nations, you will hear lots of different languages spoken. Whether you are looking for restaurants, cafés, shops, museums or bars – everything is within easy reach. The entire old town is a UNESCO World Heritage site and the ideal place for a relaxed stroll and a fascinating glimpse into the history of the city and country. Wander through the streets, keep your eyes peeled, and on every corner, you will find a unique mixture of modernity and tradition. On a human scale, yet full of thrilling contrasts – that’s how Luxembourg City will charm you!

LUXEMBOURG CAPITAL

Luxembourg City Underground: Bock Casemates The Bock Casemates, an underground defence system consisting of a network of miles-long corridors, are one of Luxembourg’s most important sights. These underground galleries were built in the 17th century when Luxembourg was under Spanish rule and were expanded twice afterwards. Visiting the archaeological crypt, an antechamber of the casemates, also makes for an exciting experience. In a nod to its impressive fortifications, Luxembourg was given the nickname “Gibraltar of the North”. Discover the fascinating history of the casemates and enjoy beautiful views over the Grund, Clausen, and Pfaffenthal.

Luxembourg City Underground: Pétrusse Casemates Underneath the city lies a secret: the “Luxembourg City Underground”, the world’s longest defence system consisting of a network of underground corridors that span several miles. Descend into the Pétrusse Casemates beneath the iconic statue of the "Gëlle Fra", a world which glows with a new-found splendour thanks to an innovative, audiovisual show. Sound effects and playful lighting rekindle the story of the former fortress city making it an unforgettable experience.

The Bockfiels: A castle for the city The Bock cliffs, which contain the casemates, are an impressive testimony to the city’s fortress history. Surrounded on three sides by the Alzette valley and only accessible from the west, the rock was easy to defend. It was here that Count Siegfried built "Lucilinburhuc" (little fortress), during the 10th century. Later it became the city and the country of Luxembourg. An unrivalled tunnel system was carved into the rock, housing a crypt. It’s a unique feature that towers above the old town offering fascinating views and perspectives.

Gëlle Fra: Laurel wreath for freedom The "Gëlle Fra" (Golden Lady) memorial, situated on Place de la Constitution, was built in 1923 to remember the Luxembourgish soldiers who died in the First World War. It consists of a gilded female figure holding a laurel wreath on a slender stone obelisk. In 1940, the memorial was destroyed by the Nazis. It took until 1984 for the "Gëlle Fra" to undergo extensive restoration and regain its original appearance. Today, the statue symbolises the freedom and resistance of the Luxembourgish people and constitutes a military memorial for those who volunteered to join the Allied armies, sacrificing their lives in various wars and battles.

The Corniche runs atop the ramparts that the Spanish and French built along the Alzette valley in the 17th century. The trail stretches from the Bock to the lower part of the Holy Ghost Citadel, the so-called "Rondellen".

A church, a little forest, a museum, a bistro, a small park – it’s like walking through a picture book. From the centre, it’s a short walk to the Meditation Path. The trail leads towards a small forest, where walkers can sink into the cool darkness. Different prompts along the trail invite you to reflect such as this one: “Eternity too consists of moments”. Such a moment could be the second you leave the forest and reach a small pond behind which you can see the silhouette of this little village. A tiny place to feel peace on a large scale.

Minett Park Fond-de-Gras: An open-air museum Nowadays, it’s hard to imagine that the peaceful little valley of Fond-de-Gras was, until the 1960s, one of the country’s leading mining centres. At "Minett Park Fond-de-Gras", over 100 years of industrial history in the south of Luxembourg are brought to life. The Train 1900 steam train links Pétange with Fond-de-Gras just as it used to around the turn of the last century. The “Minièresbunn” miners’ train takes visitors through a tunnel where iron ore used to be extracted, from Fond-de-Gras to the mining village of Lasauvage and as far as Saulnes (in France). In summer, the Blues Express music festival and the Steampunk Convention make this open-air museum buzz with life!
