Luxembourg Residences

The Fort van Thungen. Another place of interest in Luxembourg is the Fort van Thungen, the counterwork that takes place in the Dräi Eechelen Park. The complex was built in 1732 and with time some more buildings were added. The erection was called after Baron van Thungen, who was the commandant of the fort. Nowadays only a stone foundation and the towers left. Because of their shape they are called Ɖ acorns'. On the territory of the fort take place 2 museums: the new Grand Duke Jean Museum of Modern Art and the Museum De La Forteresse.

Along Luxembourg flow rivers the Alzette and the Pétrusse. They create a deep valley, due to which the city has different levels. Every part of the city has its own special character. The lower Grund area is known for its historical bridges and a lot of green. And the upper part can offer you a magnificent view on the city. If you like the combination of piece and ancient culture and along with it you are fascinated by the unique charm of the city – Luxembourg is the very place you are looking for!
