Lovely Luxembourg
Step into the fairytale kingdom of turreted castles, thriving aristocracy, lush valleys and ancient forests found in this postage stamp-sized country.

Luxembourg has the National Museum of History and Artto tempt cultural aficionados, the Notre Dame Cathedral for those who may need a bit of divine intervention, and the scenic and historic Petrusse Expressrailway, and that’s just for starters. You’ll be amazed that a city in such a small country can pack such a big punch.
LUXEMBOURG’S TOP 10
10. Neumunster Abbey A good place to mooch for an afternoon thanks to changing art exhibitions, outdoor performance space and cafe. |
5. US Military Cemetery Home to the remains of the US soldiers who helped liberate Luxembourg at the end of WWII. Very moving. |
9. Wenzel Walk Guided city walks operated by the City Tourist Office will take you through all the interesting sites and work off some of that pork and sauerkraut lunch. |
4. Bock Casements A system of passages and galleries under the Bock (medieval fortress town) first carved out by the Spaniards in 1744. |
8. Natural History Museum Interactive displays based on dinosaurs and the big bang (no creationists here) will keep the kids amused. |
3. Chateau de Bourscheid This 1,000-year-old castle with a ring wall and circular towers offers excellent views over the Sure River. |
7. St Martin’s Winery See how the local sparkling wine is traditionally made. Then taste to your heart’s content. |
2. Luxembourg City History Museum Exhibits show the history of the city in wooden miniature, plus there are great views of the Old Town from the glass lift. |
6. Modern Art Museum The same architect responsible for the Louvre’s central glass pyramid created this glass-roofed gallery that houses a modern collection of photography, design, fashion and multimedia. |
1. Palais Grand-Ducal You have one hour to move through this Moorish castle, but they only let 40 people in at a time. On your marks, get set… |
