1. MNHM National Museum of Military History
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 373 reviews
First this museum was dedicated to the "Battle of the Bulge" in Luxembourg in winter 1944/45. The key topic of the museum remains the balanced and objective historical representation of the military operations in the Ardennes from the german, american and civilian points of view. Over 3000m2 of exhibition space enable an insight of the dramatic and tragic situations that both, soldiers and civilians, were caught in. Special showrooms feature extensive collections of weapons, uniforms, military equipment of all kind, wheeled- and tracked vehicles, in addition to numerous personal soldier's belongings, photographs, documents and maps. The museum's core is doubtlessly the detailed diorama of the night-time Sauer river crossing at Diekirch on January 18th, 1945. Another part is dedicated to the history of Luxembourg's own armed forces. Other sections are dedicated to Luxembourgers fighting in allied armies in both WWI, WWII, and during the Korean conflict.

This is the best and largest museum I have ever visited specialized on World War II. you can see and touch the heavy vehicles used in World War II. military tanks, automobiles, artillery. rifles, machine guns, knives, foods, equipment, medallions...there are some exhibitions showing the daily life of soldiers, you can spend whole day here. i certainly recommend this museum if you are nearby in Luxembourg. you will not regret it.

This is a very wonderful restored castle with amazing history and full of information, especially if you take the tour with an audio guide (early to download on your iPhone). There are many stairs but otherwise it's an easy tour that takes about 2 hours to complete. There is a gift shop and a nice cafe as well, which are attached to the very informative visitor center. Highly recommend - it has views of the quaint city below.

Interesting visit. Restoring wonderfully done with respect for the ancient parts of the building. The friendly service and nice refreshments are very welcome after a climb by foot from the valley. However also reachable by vehicle using the main road. The inside visit costs 7 euro, which is absolutely acceptable considering the work they've done to the former ruins. Chapeaux!

The view is amazing, but be ware: from the finish of the chair lift to the castle is a ten minute walk/climb which isn't for elderly or people with health problems.
