Luxembourg

Luxembourg City

Luxembourg City is the capital of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, a small landlocked country in Western Europe. This vibrant city is known for its stunning blend of ancient and modern architecture. The historic Old Town features charming cobblestone streets, medieval fortifications, and the impressive Grand Ducal Palace, which serves as the official residence of the Grand Duke. The city's strategic location has made it a hub for international institutions, including the European Court of Justice and the European Investment Bank. With its multicultural population, lush parks, and picturesque setting along the Alzette River, Luxembourg City offers a unique blend of cosmopolitan flair and historical charm.

Vianden

One of Luxembourg's main tourist attractions, Vianden is a delightful historic town with a stunningly restored medieval castle, spectacularly situated on a rock high above town. Think charming cobblestoned streets with typically pastel-coloured Luxembourg mansions and a gorgeous Our valley backdrop. Vianden is a traveller's favourite and although high season will bring in some crowds, it's a most pleasant little town with a restaurant at every corner and all the fairytale atmosphere you could ask for. Coming here, you'll follow in the footsteps of countless celebrities, famously going back to Victor Hugo, who repeatedly spent time here. : P70 : P8

Echternach

Echternach is a small town with about 5,000 inhabitants on the eastern border of Luxembourg, just a hop away from Germany. It's Luxembourg's oldest town, based on an old monastery founded in 698. Aside from that, it holds the crypt of Willibrord, one of the Northumbrian missionary saints, as he died in Echternach in the year 739. His crypt can be seen in the Saint Willibrord Basilica.
