| Luxembourg city Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see Luxembourg town hall Luxembourg town hall T. Schmitz 2005 Luxembourg City is the heart of the country in cultural, political and social respect. It is not only the country's capital but also one of the three capitals of the European Community (the other two being Strassbourg and Brussels). Moreover, Luxembourg city is a banking centre and cosmopolitan town surrounded by magnificent historical fortifications, classified as world patrimony by UNESCO. The city is very pleasantly situated overlooking the Pétrusse and Alzette Valleys. Luxembourg was founded in 963 AD on a rocky outcrop known as "the Bock", by Sigefroid, Count of Ardennes, who expanded on a roman castillium, thus laying the cornerstone of a fortress that later was to become Luxembourg City. While in no way comparable in size to most other European capitals, Luxembourg has a lot of charm and its people are justifiably proud of their country. The nation's motto 'Mir wëlle bleiwe wat mir sin' (We want to remain what we are) underlines the uniqueness of Luxembourg. Apart from the numerous beautiful sights, the city of Luxembourg offers quite a good nightlife with a large number of pubs, cafes and discos despite of its small population of less than 100.000 people. By the way, more than 33% of the capital's population is of foreign origin. The biggest ethnic community is actually from Portugal, rendering a special Latin touch to the city . So it is no suprise that Luxembourg is a fantastic place for eating out, especially as it boasts of more Michelin stars per square mile (or per head of population) than any other country. Luxembourg city is an ideal starting point for excursions all over, e.g. for visiting remarkable destinations like Vianden Castle, Wiltz Festival Town or the Abbey Town of Echternach. Getting there is easy on the well-developed road network or by train and coach. _________Sights Edit This The city can be explored on foot. Most of the sights are along the southern rim of the old town, where strollers will also find fantastic views and nice parks. The old town is based around two large pedestrian squares, Place d'Armes and Place Guillaume. The city's modern commercial center is across the Pétrusse Valley to the south, connected by two bridges, Pont Adolphe and Pont Passerelle. The Pétrusse and Alzette Rivers meet in the city centre. In Luxembourg City, culture is multilingual and multi-layered. In a nutshell, the city boasts of the most reputed cultural facilities of the country: the Museums for History and Art, the Museum of the History of the City, several theatres and small stage venues, the Music Conservatory, the National Library, to name but a few.

The Neumünster Abbey consisted of a church and 4 wings enclosing an inner courtyard. At the end of the 18th century, after the French Revolution authorities expropriated the Church of St. John, the abbey was altered so as to house a military hospital which functioned until 1867. After the State took over the premise, Neumünster was used as prison for male more.. type: Religious Buildings World66 rating: [rate it] address: The Grund National Museum Of History and Art Edit This x The museum with its 120 rooms gives a good overview of Luxembourg's history.

A deep moat surrounded Fort Thüngen which was accessible only through a 169-metre-long underground tunnel through the rocks from Obergrünewald. In 1836 the Prussians extended the Fort and in 1860 strengthened it again. In 1870 and 1874 it was demolished: only the three round towers, the so-called Three Acorns, and the foundation walls, uncovered in 1991, remained in good more.. type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] Cercle Municipal (City Palace) Edit This x The City Palace serves as an administrative building.

Especially in summer it is the place where everybody meets. Place d'Armes was aligned by Sebastian van Noyen from Utrecht and completed by Governor Jean Charles de Landas in 1671. The French troops of Louis XIV paved the square, planted lime-trees and used it for parades. The bandstand has concerts every summer evening by visiting bands. Every second and fourth Saturday, a brocante (antiques/flea) market fills the square. type: Squares World66 rating: [rate it] address: Between Neuve Rue Phillipe & Rue de Cure Place Guillaume Edit This This is the square where markets take place on Fridays and Wednesdays. type: Squares World66 rating: [rate it] address: Between Rue Chimay & Rue de Fosse William Square Edit This x This square was named after the King of the Netherlands and Grand Duke of Luxembourg, William II. It used to be the home to the monastery and church of St. Francis. The locals often call the place 'Knuedler' refering to the knot in the belt of the Franciscan friars. In 1797, the French seized the monastery with all its grounds and disposed of it part by part. In the two centuries the buildings were demolished and the square totally redesigned. type: Squares World66 rating: [rate it] Sights:Quarters Edit This type: Palaces World66 rating: [rate it] Old Town Edit This In the heart of the city you can find nice cafés and fantastic restaurants. It is really fun to stroll through the old, narrow lanes in this part of town. The Old Town is also home of most museums and the Grand Ducal Palace and the New Bridge (Adolphe Bridge) type: Palaces World66 rating: [rate it] Corniche Edit This Also called "the most beautiful balcony of Europe" (according to the Luxembourgish writer Batty Weber), it runs along the Alzette valley on the ramparts - built by the Spaniards and the French in the 17th century - from the Bock Promontory up to the lower part of the Holy Ghost Citadel, the so-called "Rondellen". Up to the year 1870 the Corniche had staircases in steep parts which were levelled off only after the dismantling of the fortress. Moreover the greatest part of the protecting wall with its loopholes was cleared away so as to disclose a superb panorama on the valley of more.. type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] Spanish Turrets Edit This They were set up in the middle of the 17th century, integrated in the large fortifications initiated by the Spaniards and continued by Vauban. The actual purpose of the turrets has not been clearly established. Apparently there were 38 of them, but there is no historical evidence for this number. type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] Archeological Crypt Edit This x As the didactic anti-chamber of the Bock casemates, it houses the origins of the city of Luxembourg. Modern technology is used to preserve, protect and restore not only the castle structures of the first Dukes of Luxembourg, but also vestiges of the fortress. The main attraction is an audio-visual facility creating special light and sound effects while retelling the history of the sites from its beginnings to the end of the Middle Ages. type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] address: Bock Promontory, Montee Claussen. Casemates Bock Edit This x The first underground tunnels were built in 1644, in the era of the Spanish domination. The 23-kilometre-long galleries were enlarged only 40 years later by Vauban, the French military engineer and fortress builder, and in the 18th century by the Austrians. The subterranean defensive passages were placed on different levels and reached down as far as 40 metres. It is these impressive defence works that conferred Luxembourg the name of "Gibraltar of the North". After the dismantling of the fortress in 1867, 17 kilometres of the casemates were spared, left in good condition. Since more.. type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] address: Montee de clausen Beck Bastion Edit This x Erected during the first Spanish rule by Isaac von Traybach on the site of what is now Constitution Square (1644), the bastion is named after the former Governor of the Duchy of Luxembourg, Baron Johann von Beck. During the first French rule from 1684-97 Vauban raised the walls of the Beck Bastion lining the Pétrusse valley to the level of their present height. In 1860 it was strengthened further, only to be partly dismantled seven years later. type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] Borbon Plateau Edit This x Its name refers to the former Fort Bourbon and it had been included in the fortification of the city for ages. A lot of defence works of the middle and exterior rings of the so-called Diedenhofener Front (for instance Fort Bourbon, Fort Elisabeth, Avancée Thionville, Fort Wallis, Fort Wedell) were located on this plateau. After the fortress was dismantled (from 1867 onwards), the principles of town planning needed applying here. type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] Model of the Fortress Edit This x On display in the Cercle Municipal the model is the exact replica of a miniature made by the French army between 1802 and 1805. A 15-minute light and sound show describes the history of the former "Gibraltar of the North". type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] New Bridge (Adolphe Bridge) Edit This x The bride was constructed during the first three years of the last century. At that time it was biggest stone arch in the world. The big double arch spans more than 85 metres at a height of 42 metres and a total length of 153 metres. type: Historical Sites World66 rating: [rate it] Cathedrale Notre-Dame Edit This type: Religious Buildings World66 rating: [rate it] address: Place d’Armes Grand Ducal Palace Edit This The Grand Ducal Palace serves as the official home of the Grand Ducal family. It is located in the heart of the city. In the 18th century the former City Scales were added as an extension, whereas the Chamber of Deputies was built as an annex in 1859. Since 1890 the main building has been the Grand Ducal Palace. In the middle of the 90ies the palace was restored. type: Religious Buildings World66 rating: [rate it] address: Rue du Marche aux Herbes Holy Ghost Citadel Edit This x In 1234 the Holy Ghost Monastery was founded on the square bearing the same name. As the third ring was built in the 14th century, the plateau was linked to the protected part of the city. Its military and strategic location was recognized during the first Spanish domination, but its final shape dates back to 1685-87, when the French military fortress builder Vauban expanded the site of the citadel and strengthened the walls and bulwarks into bastions. type: Religious Buildings World66 rating: [rate it] address: Holy Ghost Square __________History Edit This The history of Lucilinburhuc (i.e. Luxembourg) starts in the year 963, when Siegfried, Count of the Ardennes, and founder of the Luxembourg dynasty, had a castle built on the territory of the present-day capital of Luxembourg. This castle was the origin of the establishment of a town, which later developed into a formidable fortress, known by the name of 'Gibraltar of the North'. At its height, the fortress was girdled by three ring-walls studded with 24 forts and linked underground by a 23 kilometre network of Casemates. After a long period of foreign sovereignty (Burgundian/ Spanish/ French/ Austrian), the Congress of Vienna settled the destiny of the country by raising it to the rank of Grand Duchy and by giving it as personal property to the King of the Netherlands William I of Orange-Nassau. The personal union between Luxembourg and the Netherlands lasted until 1890. On the 11th of May 1867, the Treaty of London was signed. This treaty reaffirmed Luxembourg's territorial integrity and the political autonomy, which had already been granted by the Treaty of Vienna in 1839. Furthermore, Luxembourg was declared permanently neutral and the great powers agreed to guarantee and to protect the neutrality of the Grand Duchy. Since 1890, when the Crown of the Grand Duchy passed to the elder branch of the House of Nassau, Luxembourg has had its own dynasty. Despite its neutrality, Luxembourg was occupied twice by German troops during the two World Wars. The Battle of the Bulge was to a great extent fought on Luxembourg territory. In 1948, the country gave up its neutrality to join the various economic, political and military organisations of Europe. Already forming a close economic union with Belgium since 1921, the Grand Duchy is a founder member of the EU and was host to the first European institutions in 1953. ________Practical Information Edit This [Add Practical address] Language Edit This x 'Lëtzebuergesch' is the everyday spoken language of the people and the symbol of the Luxembourgers national identity. Since 1984 the former Mosel-Frankish dialect is now recognised as the national language, while both French and German remain the official languages. 'Lëtzebuergesch' or Luxembourgish is taught in schools and in language courses mostly addressed to resident foreigners. Both the German and French culture meet in Luxembourg. Franco-German bilingualism without any language differences is a typical aspect of the country's social structure.

The main centre of the capital city is very compact and eminently walkable, in spite of the cliffs and ramparts characteristic of the old fortress city. There is no underground or tramway service, but there are very interesting plans to improve on the existing link from the airport to the railway station via a direct connection. The recent introduction of Night Buses has seen a remarkable decrease in the amount of late-night traffic and noise. For further details on these and other City Bus services, see www.autobus.lu or telephone: (+352) 4796 2975. Tickets Unless you can show a pass, a ride on a City bus will set you back a flat fare of 40 Luxembourg Francs (some 90 UK pence). This "short distance" ticket is valid for one hour (or ±10 km) from purchase on the whole of Luxembourg's public transport network, and also allows transits between city and country buses and trains. A so-called "Oeko-Pass" (as in economical or even ecological network ticket) is available at railway stations throughout the country, and at the airport. It covers unlimited travel on all forms of public transport (city buses, trains and country coaches) for one day (which is considered to last until 8 am the next morning) throughout the country. It is not valid on sightseeing buses. You can purchase a single ticket for 160 Francs (Luxembourg = Belgian Franc) [roughly £2.50]. It is also well worth investigating the LuxembourgCard which also includes free transport, and in addition gives you free entry to 34 attractions thoughout the country for about five pounds a day for a single user, or ten pounds a day for a family of five. TRAIN The Luxembourg Railways runs according to the new "Horaire Cadencé" schedule (which builds on last year's "Takt 98"), meaning that there is at least 1 train every hour to every station at the same time of every hour between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Details of the new timetable can be found at: http://www.cfl.lu/f/horcad99/horcad99.htm, where a clickable map gives you timings for all trains to all stations on the Luxembourg Railway Network.

Thus Luxembourg-City is an ideal starting point for excursions all over. In no time you may get to remarkable destinations like the castle of Vianden, the ”Festival Town” of Wiltz or the ”Abbey Town” of Echternach on a well-developed road network or else by train or coach. The landscape is just unbelievably varied: the wooded crests of the Ardennes alternate with the softly undulated vine-slopes of the Moselle or the rock formations of the Müllerthal and the reddish iron-ore canyons of the south. In their traditionally open-minded and cosmopolitan attitude, the natives have always carefully nursed contacts with the neighbours, Germany, France and Belgium. Why not take advantage of your stay in Luxembourg and set out for an introductory tour beyond the frontiers? You will be impressed by Trier with its old Roman buildings, by Metz and its proud cathedral or by Bastogne with its Museum of the Battle of the Bulge. After all, there are not many places where you could easily see 4 countries in 1 day (Try breakfast in Germany, lunch in France, dinner in Belgium, and you could still be home in time for the nightcap!). Contributors March 24, 2005 change by giorgio [Add Day Trip] Shopping trip Edit This Another great thing about Luxembourg is its very low excise rates and therefore it is THE country within the EU to buy your tobacco, wine and spirits.

Just as you please: a cabaret evening in ”Lëtzebuergesch”, the vernissage of a French avantgardist painter, the first run of a German-speaking film, the performance of an English ballet group. ‘Après-culture’ is plentiful, whether in the homely bistros of the lower towns, on the lively café-terraces of the Place d’Armes, or in one of the numerous restaurants with richly varied gastronomy from all over the world. Both the ”Emaischen” on Easter Monday and a big kermesse, the ”Schueberfouer”, in late summer, are popular festivities.
