The 10 Best Historic Sites in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg District

February 15, 2022 Viva Honore

A captivating contrast of old and new, Luxembourg City's past is celebrated by its World Heritage status; its present sway by its position as headquarters for several significant European institutions. Small enough to explore on foot, this compact city offers a wealth of attractions, including dramatic promontory The Bock, underground passages in Petrusse Casemates, Palace of the Grand Dukes and the National Museum. Countless banks on Boulevard Royal, once a fortress moat, hint at the duchy's wealth.

Museum Drai Eechelen

Reviewed By J5902UYdavidp - Norfolk, United States

We went here because we were already at the MUDAM, and didn't really expect much, but found it fascinating. Seeing the actual royally signed ratification documents of the treaty creating Luxembourg as an independent country was really cool! And the film of the Grand Duke's brother being interviewed was more interesting than most of the exhibits, and a real lesson in history - take a few minutes to watch!
