Luxembourg City, Luxembourg ???????? - City Break
Luxembourg City is not the first place that springs to mind when you think of a European city break but take a visit and it might surprise you! ????
Luxembourg is one of Europe's smallest countries but there's surprisingly lots to do! We visited in January when Luxembourg City was covered in snow, making it look incredibly beautiful. It's perfect for a city break!
Luxembourg City is located near to the airport and is easy to get to. Accommodation is reasonable and prices are comparable to other nearby European countries.
There's surprisingly lots to do in Luxembourg City, despite its size. It has a number of museums including the Musée national d’histoire et d’art Luxembourg, Musée national d'histoire naturelle and Musée Dräi Eechelen, located in Fort Thungen. Other sights include the Grand Ducal Palace and Casemates du Bock.
A Luxembourg City Break is perfect for a weekend of sightseeing. There's really nice restaurants and bars too. It's easy to get to from most of Europe, with regular flights and trains from neighbouring countries. It's just 2 hours from Paris on the TGV.

10 Things To Do In Luxembourg City | Top Attractions Travel Guide Travel Video Transcript:
Well, welcome to Luxembourg! The only Grand Duchy in the world. Over the next few days we're going to be exploring the capital of Luxembourg City and this is going to be a little city guide to show you some of the highlights.
Located smack dab in between Germany, France, and Belgium, the little Grand Duchy of Luxembourg can be easy to miss if you're not looking carefully, however, we're of the opinion that this is a beautiful destination that you'll definitely want to make time for. From picturesque neighbourhoods with cream coloured walls, to dazzling views of blue rooftops in the Old Town below, Luxembourg City is a charming destination that you'll want to add to your European itinerary.
So this hear is the Corniche and it is a pedestrian promenade which has been called the most beautiful balcony in all of Europe because it gets some spectacular views of the old town.
So we are now entering the Bock Casemates and apparently this was the old fortification of Luxemborg and it was known as the Gibraltar of the north.
This was once one of the most envied fortresses in all of Europe.
Right now we're visiting the Three Towers which are remnants of an old fortress.
We've been walking around a neighborhood called the Grund which is directly below the city center. And it is really picturesque and without tourists.
So behind me we have Saint Michael's church which is the oldest church in Luxembourg. The first church to be built on this spot dates back to the year 987, however, the church was destroyed, rebuilt, and renovated many times over the centuries.
The Palace houses the Grand Duke's office and during the summer months.
There is no shortage of museums in Luxembourg City, so we took some time to visit the National Museum of Art and History.
We are now looking at the Passerelle which is Luxembourg's very own viaduct.
So we are now standing in William Square which is a really popular spot on Sundays and Wednesdays because local vendors setup shop and they sell all kinds of things from fresh produce, to flowers, street snacks.
So final thoughts of Luxembourg. Alright, to wrap things up here it was a really cool city. It is the type of city that you can explore in just one or two days. A weekend type of destination because a lot of the attractions are nearby one another. And we just found it a very easy city to get around in on foot.
So as a little travel tip if you're planning on being in the city for a few days we really recommend the Luxembourg Card. This is what we used while we were here and it is really good for public transportation across the city. Across the country actually and you also get access to seventy different galleries, museums, historic attractions and it is not that expensive. I mean it depends on whether you get a family or an individual card but we really recommend it because we made a lot of use of it.
Our visit to Luxembourg City was short and sweet, but we hope this video gave you a little taste of what it's like. Now it's your turn: have you ever been to Luxembourg? If so, feel free to share some of your tips in the comments below.
This is part of our Travel in Luxembourg series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Luxembourg culture, Luxembourg foods & Luxembourg cuisine.

Luxembourg - Heritage, art and culture - LUXE.TV
A cosmopolitan country, in the heart of Europe, welcome to Luxembourg.
Luxembourg City is above all a multicultural city that counts no less than 163 different nationalities. The capital of the Grand Duchy where many European Institutions call home, and the biggest banks have their headquarters.
But between tradition and modernity, the city of Luxembourg is surprising with its numerous tourist sites: monuments listed as UNESCO world heritage sites, museums, squares, boutiques, and even its craftsmen who actively participate in the richness of the country.
Today, after dropping off our bags at one of the most prestigious establishments of the city, the Sofitel Luxembourg Le Grand Ducal, our first stop is a gourmet one with Léa Linster, the only woman in the world to have won the much coveted Bocuse d’Or.
A starred chef who makes a point of highlighting local wines and products. On her advice, we shall head over to the Domaine Mathis Bastian, known especially for its Auxerrois, an excellent Luxembourg grape variety.
Finally, after taking you around the city, we take you to Bridel, steps away from the centre of Luxembourg, where we will spend an evening in a chic and trendy club, completely relaxed in the middle of the forest.
Then we meet two young entrepreneurs who have risen to the challenge: produce a beer with resolutely premium packaging!
The Sofitel Luxembourg Le Grand Ducal is one of the most luxurious hotels in the Grand Duchy.
In the lobby, we can see that it was designed to be a true living space for the clientele. An establishment that has earned its 5 stars.
Created in 2008, the hotel offers 128 rooms and suites including the Grand Ducal suite, the most luxurious but also the biggest in Luxembourg with some 200 m2 of living space.
There’s a living room/dining room with 2 bedrooms on each side. The magnificent bathtub certainly caught our eye.
Delighting in a unique panorama of the capital city, the elegant Sofitel Luxembourg Grand Ducal overlooks the Alzette and Pétrusse Valleys.
A view that one can savour on the top floor of the hotel where the barmen of the Observatory concoct delicious cocktails.
Through the bay windows, you can see the Notre Dame Cathedral of Luxembourg built between 1613 and 1621. A Cathedral church in 1870, it was expanded between 1935 and 1938. The crypt is the resting place of John the Blind, King of Bohemia and the Count of Luxembourg, as well as many late members of the grand duchy family.
A few hundred metres behind the monument is the Palace, the city residence of the Grand Duke. It’s here where royal marriages are celebrated, notably with their appearance on the balcony.
The Flemish renaissance style facades dating back to the 16th century are just splendid. The majestic interior and state rooms are open to the public, but exclusively during the summer.
Because of its strategic position, between the kingdom of France and the German empire, the fortress of Luxembourg has been, since the 16th century, until its dismantling in 1867, one of the most important fortified sites in Europe.
The biggest engineers, like Vauban, left their imprint on this fortress, considered to be the Gibraltar of the north.
An extraordinary 23 km network of underground tunnels, the famous Bock casemates, were sculpted in the rocks of the city, making it the number one attraction in Luxembourg. They are unique in the world and testify to the glorious past of the legendary city fortress.
She is also part of the history of the Grand Duchy.
Léa Linster, a distinguished female chef, starred in 1987, and then winner of the Bocuse d'or 2 years later.
To date, she remains the only woman in the world to hold this ultimate gastronomic distinction.
We now head to Frisange, a few kilometres from Luxembourg, on the French border, for a little well-deserved tasty break.
Today Léa Linster is making a potato recipe for us.
Is this just a random dish? Certainly not, since it was thanks to this vegetable that she won the Bocuse d’or. Let’s go back to 1989
It is time to watch our chef at work.
Lea throws herself into a potato galette recipe, just for us!
Tasty isn’t it?
The charm of a simple, tasty, yet technical cuisine, served in a bright restaurant where a few piano notes might just resonate during dinner.
Bird songs are also expected to accompany your meal. The starred chef is eager to offer her guests a magnificent view, during the day.
And as always “with love” of course!

Luxembourg City Promenade Walking Tour
Luxembourg City is an amazingly scenic city to do a walking tour, especially in Autumn. We did a self-guided walking tour along the City Promenade to take in the best panoramic views of the city and surrounds. What we discovered literally took our breath away. This city is INSANELY beautiful in Autumn, I did not expect it to be as gorgeous as what we found.
In this VLOG we do a comprehensive tour of the City Promenade, following one of the published guided tour leaflets we found in our hotel, the Hotel Central Molitor in Luxembourg City. Not only did this suggested walking tour show us the route to follow, but it also gave us some brief notes on each of the attractions. The brochure, published by the Luxembourg City Tourist Office, stated that it is a 2-hour walk of 4km. From our hotel, we ended up taking about 5 hours and walked 6km.

Autobussen in Luxemburg
Op de streekbuslijnen in Luxemburg rijden bussen van een groot aantal particuliere maatschappijen. De coördinatie is in handen van de RGTR (Régime Général des Transports Routiers). Doordat het materieel op de streeklijnen in de eigen bedrijfskleuren rijdt en ieder bedrijf z''n eigen bustypes heeft is er veel variatie. Paralel aan de spoorlijnen en op voormalige spoorroutes rijden bussen van de Luxemburgse spoorwegen (CFL).
In Luxemburg stad rijden de stadsbussen van les Autobus de la Ville de Luxembourg (AVL). Deze bussen rijden in bonte kleuren. een deel van de bussen is ook hier weer van particuliere maatschappijen, maar hier rijden de bussen allemaal in de kleuren van de AVL.
