Luxembourg City Airfares

Luxembourg City Overview

By Roz Andrews

Luxembourg City, the capital of the tiny Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, is built on steep hills overlooking the Alzette and Petrusse rivers.

Towers, ramparts, walls, gates and bridges that originally formed part of the fortifications protecting the city offer spectacular views of the river below and the surrounding countryside. Explore the underground, multi-galleried casemates, which were originally excavated to house soldiers in times of emergency.

Wander around Luxembourg’s Old Town to discover many historic buildings including the Grand Duke’s Palace, St Michael’s Church, and the Folklore Museum.

Relax in the pavement cafes and restaurants of the Place d’Armes and listen to an open-air concert on summer evenings. Go!
