Top 4 Architectural Sites
When it was originally built in 1732 the only access to Fort Thungen was through a long tunnel under the moat. Today three squat round towers known as the Three Acorns are all that remain of the original fort. The modern glass structure of Mudam or the Grand Duke Jean Museum of Modern Art sits next to Fort Thungen making a pleasing counterpoint between the old and the new. The Romanesque outline of Vianden Castle in the North of Luxembourg gives it a fairy-tale appeal. Parts of this pretty building date back to the 11th-century. The town of Echternach is the oldest settlement in the Grand Duchy and a lively place to visit. Here you will find the Basilica of Saint Willibrord which contains the tomb of the Duchy's patron saint.
Top 4 Natural Sites
The rugged natural beauty of the Ardennes region stretches across Luxembourg's border with Belgium. Spend a day hiking through its forests that are crisscrossed with rivers and cave systems. Another delightful hiking spot is the Moselle Valley. The gentle slopes and mild climate make the valley perfect for vineyards and the Duchy's history of wine-making can be explored in the Wine Museum at Ehnen. The pretty Jardin de Wiltz is a garden of art landscaped and maintained by people with long-term disabilities and is a tranquil landscape full of sensory delights. The Mullerthal region is sometimes called Luxembourg's Little Switzerland. Dip into the 112km long Mullerthal Trail as it meanders through magnificent canyons and strange rock formations.
