Luxembourg City

Luxembourg is the capital of the small European nation of the same name. Built amid deep gorges cut by the Alzette and Pétrusse rivers, it’s famed for its ruins of medieval fortifications. The vast Bock Casemates tunnel network encompasses a dungeon, prison and the Archaeological Crypt, considered the city’s birthplace. Along ramparts above, the Chemin de la Corniche promenade offers dramatic viewpoints.

Casemates du Bock is a network of underground tunnels and galleries that were initially constructed in 1644 as a defense system. During World War II, it served as a shelter for thousands of residents and soldiers. The historic tunnel, now a UNESCO World Heritage site, features atmospheric passages, different levels, and impressive rock stairways. Today, the Bock Casemates offer visitors an immersive historical experience through centuries of military engineering.
Very beautiful view! We loved it! Despite the masses of foreign tourists we never felt trapped or stuck. Everything is very good organized and the paths are big enough to walk around. There is a free escalator available (up to 25 persons) to travel up and down to the highest or lowest point. Absolute recommendation! Bring enough time to see all the beautiful things around. Visit the church, walk the little paths. Enjoy the small river and feel the warmth of luxembourg. The people are awesome and very friendly. The architecture is historic and modern at the same time. We discovered the city as a coincidence and we fell in love with it. Visit the nice little cozy restaurants, the bars, have a chat and enjoy the hospitality we experienced.

It ok, quite expensive for a few casements. Most the views are either obscured or the same as the last casement, you visited. I don’t think it’s worth €10 and adult. Don’t get me wrong, it’s an impressive feat of workmanship but you don’t really need to go inside to see them. Take photos from the top and the battlements on the bridge instead.

I visited Casemates du Bock and honestly, it was an amazing experience! The underground tunnels are full of history and mystery — it feels like stepping back in time. The view from the top is breathtaking, especially overlooking Luxembourg City. The place is well maintained and easy to explore. I’d really recommend visiting in the morning when it’s less crowded. Perfect spot for history lovers and photographers. Truly one of the most unique and memorable places in Luxembourg😍😍😍

Nice caves in the cliffs -There was only 1 person in line when i got here around 5 pm. -You get a map of the cave, but its pretty simple, you walk down looking at the rooms/lookouts, there is a few cannons, a well. -On the way out you cross the gate bridge on the inside level

I went on a Sunday at 1130 with their official guided tour which was hosted in English. The tour also offers other languages but do check and reserve your spot in advance as they do not open tours every hour/every day. The guided tour gave a lot of important information about the history of the Casemates, but also the city and urban planning in general. There were hardly any text printed out for visitors to read if you enter without any audio guide/tour guide. Therefore, remember to collect an pamphlet before entering the site if you want to know more about the history of the site. If you want to have more flexibility in exploring and taking photos at the site, I would suggest to explore on your own pace instead of joining the guided tour.

Going around the Casemates was amazing. Our tour guide was absolutely outstanding. Really do recommend paying the extra €8 and getting a tour because they are full of historic information about the history of the Casemates as well as some of the history about Luxembourg itself had a fantastic time took a roundabout about an hour and 15 minutes but it’s well worth a visit!
Shane C — Google review
We were able to buy tickets when we arrived, which was convenient. Students can get tickets for €8 and I was not asked to show any ID. There is very minimal signage and none of it is in English, but they provide a pamphlet in multiple languages with helpful information. The views of the city are great and you get to see everything from a completely different angle than you would from the street. I am directionally challenged and got turned around a couple of times, but it was still easy to find the way out. I am 160 cm and did not feel like the space was small, but my friend who is 170 cm had to watch her head in a few spots. If you are taller than 180 cm, some areas may feel low and not very comfortable to move through. Overall, it was worth the visit.

A Weekend Well Spent in Luxembourg! Classmates Luxembourg was an absolute delight! We were lucky with the weather, which made our visit even better. We spent hours walking around, exploring the stunning views from various angles, and truly soaking in the beauty of the surroundings. We drove there by car and had no trouble finding parking—plenty of space, no waiting, and reasonably priced. The area is well-equipped with restaurants and food stalls, perfect for grabbing a quick bite on the go. Overall, it was a wonderful weekend escape. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy some breathtaking scenery!

Nestled in the heart of Luxembourg City, the Palais Grand-Ducal stands as a stunning testament to history and architecture. Originally constructed in 1572 as the city hall, this magnificent Renaissance building has undergone several transformations over the centuries. It became a government headquarters and eventually was designated as the official residence for the Grand Duke of Luxembourg in 1890.
The Grand Ducal Palace in Luxembourg City is the official residence of the Grand Duke and serves as the center of the country's constitutional monarchy. Located in the heart of the old town, the palace is a stunning example of Renaissance architecture with its elegant façade and ornate details. Originally built in the 16th century as a city hall, it became the residence of the Grand Dukes in 1890. Today, it is used for official ceremonies, receptions, and state functions. While it is generally closed to the public, guided tours are offered during the summer months, allowing visitors to explore its richly decorated interiors, including the throne room and ceremonial halls. The presence of ceremonial guards outside adds to its stately ambiance. The palace stands as a powerful symbol of Luxembourg’s national identity and history, and remains one of the most photographed and admired buildings in the capital.

After you pass William Square you can find the Grand Ducal Palace. The palace was built in 1572 it has been the residence of the Grand Duke since 1890. It represents Luxembourg's monarchy and is a popular tourist attraction. Every hour there is a soldier replacement event, the senior soldier combined with another soldier will arrive to the palace gate, the arrived solider will swap his place with resident soldier, after they leave the solider will guard the place front gate by moving back and forth in harmony way. Worth to watch.

A unique look inside Luxembourg’s royal residence. Worth it all the way! The Grand Ducal Palace is open to the public only during the summer months (usually mid-July to early September). Tickets are 18€ in 2025 and should be booked about a week in advance through the website of the Luxembourg City Tourist Office, as spots sell out really quickly. Also be aware that airport-like security checks are in place when entering the building, so go light. Guided tours last about 75 min out of which 45 min inside the Palace. You’ll visit official state rooms, ceremonial halls, and learn about the history of the monarchy and the building’s architecture. Photography inside is not allowed unless on private tour/invitation, so enjoy the marvelous things during the tour.

The official residence of the Grand Duke of Luxembourg, the palace is not generally open to the palace.The building looks Neo-Renaissance and is surprisingly close to William Square and almost intimately close to the street. Just outside the front entrance are the palace guards. Not if guards march up and down the entrance regularly, but they spent a good 10 minutes marching up and down when I was there about mid afternoon. A nice landmark building in the city.

The Palace of Grand Duke is a must-see place in Luxembourg. Even though 200 years ago it used to be just a city hall building, duke Adolphe changed it into a real palace. Normally you can see the palace only from outside but during the holiday season the royal family goes on vacation and everyone can book a guided tour from July to the end of August. Don't miss the chance to see splendid gold-coated interiors!

Catholic cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
Cathédrale Notre-Dame is a Catholic cathedral in Luxembourg, built between 1613 and 1621 by the Jesuit religious order. The cathedral showcases a mix of Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance styles. Visitors can admire the wood carvings, sculptures, and stained glass inside. The Baroque-inspired north gate is particularly striking.
It doesn’t matter whether you’re religious or not — visiting the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Luxembourg is a must. Its architecture is truly unique, with different parts built by various countries over time. There’s a lot to see and to discover inside, and on Saturdays, you can also enjoy organ concerts and immerse yourself in the music. ♥️♥️♥️

Heavenly! The stained glass was gorgeous! The morning sunlight filled the church with jeweled toned colors! The organ music was richer than any I had ever heard! I don't know if it was the organ or the organist or the acoustics or all three together, but the sound was divine! The priest was dressed in exquisite vestments and sang like it was a concert performance! If Jesus would have returned at the end of the service, I would not have been surprised!
Rob E — Google review
I visited Notre-Dame after it was suggested by TripAdvisor, and I’m so glad I followed that tip — it truly felt like one of the highlights of my time in Luxembourg. Tucked into the city in a way that still feels central, the church manages to be both grand and incredibly intimate. From the moment I stepped inside, the atmosphere encouraged slow breathing and quiet observation. The soft light moving across the stonework and through the stained glass made everything feel gentle and peaceful, like time had softened its edges for a little while. The volunteers and staff were warm and welcoming without being intrusive, offering a short, friendly introduction that gave helpful context without rushing the experience. There are lovely little corners perfect for sitting and collecting your thoughts, and I found myself lingering longer than planned simply because it felt so restorative. The combination of soothing architecture and a calm, respectful hum of low conversation made it an ideal place to recharge between more bustling sightseeing stops. I particularly enjoyed watching how the light changed as the afternoon moved on — it gave the interior a new mood every few minutes, and made my short visit feel quietly cinematic. Afterward I wandered to a nearby café and carried that sense of calm with me for the rest of the day. If you’re looking for a relaxing cultural break, whether you’re into architecture, reflective moments, or gentle music (they sometimes have short recitals that add a beautiful soundtrack to the space), Notre-Dame is a wonderful pick. Tip: go earlier in the day for the best light and a quieter vibe. Overall, this was a serene and friendly experience — the kind of place that makes you pause, breathe, and appreciate the slower moments of travel. Highly recommended.

I visited Notre-Dame Cathedral in Luxembourg on Christmas Eve, and the atmosphere was truly unforgettable. The entire cathedral was glowing with warm candlelight and soft golden tones, filled with the sound of carols and quiet prayer. There was a sense of peace and reverence that made the evening feel sacred, even for someone just passing through. The soaring ceilings, intricate stained glass, and the gentle murmur of people gathering in silence made it one of the most emotional travel moments I’ve ever experienced. It wasn’t just beautiful — it felt meaningful. A place where stillness meets spirit.

I visited the Cathédrale Notre-Dame in Luxembourg, and it was such a peaceful and beautiful place. The architecture is truly stunning — every corner has amazing details. Inside, the atmosphere feels calm and spiritual, even if you’re not religious. I loved the stained-glass windows; they look magical when sunlight shines through. It’s also very clean and well maintained. A must-visit place if you’re in Luxembourg City — full of history, art, and quiet charm
Mk H — Google review
A really beautiful cathedral in the centre of Luxembourg City. The architecture is impressive from the outside with its tall towers and detailed design, and inside it feels very peaceful and spiritual. The stained glass windows are amazing, especially when the sunlight comes through them. There are also nice statues and decorations everywhere. You can feel the history of the place while walking around. It’s not very big compared to some other European cathedrals but it’s still very special and definitely worth a visit if you are in Luxembourg. The area around it is also very nice to walk and explore.

The only cathedral in Luxembourg. Built in the Gothic style, but with many Renaissance elements. It has an interesting interior, and since I'm not a fan of lavish golden walls and decorations in such buildings, you won't see much of it here either

Restaurant
Restaurant Mosconi, located in the charming Grund area along the Alzette River, is a haven for Italian cuisine enthusiasts. Boasting a prestigious Michelin star, this establishment offers an authentic and immersive journey through the flavors of Italy. Helmed by the talented husband and wife duo, Ilario and Simonetta Mosconi, the restaurant prides itself on using fresh, top-notch ingredients to craft an exquisite Italian menu.
Mosconi in Luxembourg provided an unforgettable dining experience, earning 5 out of 5 stars. I opted for the "Degustazione di Paste" menu, and from start to finish, it was a culinary journey that left a lasting impression. Each dish was crafted with precision and care, showcasing the elegance and creativity behind every plate. The Spaghetti with Caviar, Linguine with Marinated Sardines, and the Pacchero with Langoustine and Basil Cream were all standouts, each offering a unique combination of flavors that balanced beautifully. The Ravioli with Ricotta and Pecorino had a perfect balance of creaminess and bite, while the Plin with Chicken and Saffron was a rich and flavorful dish. Every pasta course was more than just a meal—it felt like a masterpiece. For dessert, I chose the 70% Chocolate with Balsamic Vinegar and Piedmont Hazelnuts, and it was the perfect indulgence to round off the evening. The contrast of rich chocolate with the subtle tang of balsamic was unlike anything I’ve tasted, creating a dessert that was both luxurious and inventive. On top of the fantastic food, the service at Mosconi was impeccable. From the moment I stepped in, the staff made me feel truly special and well taken care of. Their attention to detail and warm, professional demeanor made the entire evening feel seamless and refined. Mosconi offers an exquisite combination of food, service, and ambiance that makes you feel like you’re part of something extraordinary. A well-deserved 5 out of 5 stars!

An impeccable service and excellent food. The prices are high, especially for the beverages, but you are in a one-star restaurant. We had the Pasta menu and were a bit disappointed as it was not as inventive and lacked the unusual you would expect from a star restaurant.

Excellent food, although a bit caricaturish of Italian cuisine, the highlight being a courgette flower with ricotta. Value for money poor, especially the accompanying wines to the tasting menu. Outside area and the restaurant itself are comfortable and pleasant. The waiters zip between tables, really quickly naming the dishes, hard to catch what they are saying. The sommelier was a very nice and attentive guy though. Was my second time there, not sure I'll be back given the price. Final bill was eye-wateringly high.

Absolutely the best Italian restaurant in Luxembourg! The food is outstanding — rich in flavor, beautifully presented, and the portions are just right (not tiny like in many other places). We had a fantastic time: the service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere made the whole experience even better. They also have a great selection of wine and champagne. Highly recommended!

A culinary experience from the beginning till the end. The people working there make you feel welcome since the moment you arrive (maybe not necessary to run through the stairs to open the lift door -but still a good example on how they want to treat you). The food is great, the ratio price/food puts it in the costy side but if you have the opportunity, a good place to spend a nice evening.

Overrated place i wouldn’t recommend. i) no air in the dining room, it is super hot inside. You cannot enjoy your time there. ii) service is terrible. It feels like they are paying you +200EUR per person but not you. They are passive aggressive and rude. iii) food is okay but not deserves Michelin star. We did not finish main dishes and desert as they were not tasty. Aperatives were tasty but the rest was just okay.

It's a great place for groups, with an impressive drinks menu and extensive menu of Mediterranean, Greek and Persian dishes that can be shared. Downstairs you'll find a more club-like atmosphere with its own bar and music.

Amazing and delicious food! We ordered a Veggie Mezze Addict for two people which is a mix of many things: aubergine salad, cream, hummus, falafel, haloumi, spinach pie and salad, as well as a bread and a pita! It's pretty worthy this to share in 2 people and try a diversity of food! Nicely decorated with friendly staff. Sometimes it can be pretty loud but for sure you can enjoy it! I also ordered a fruits rouges tea which was refreshing!

Bazaar Bar & Grill has a nice atmosphere, and the service was the best part. My waitress was very sweet (from France), and even with limited English she worked hard to take care of me. The food overall was disappointing. The fish was salty but still tolerable, so I ate it, but everything else on the plate was far too salty to enjoy. The salad was spoiled and completely inedible. At least the babaganoush with pita was great — honestly the only dish I really enjoyed. For the price they charge, the quality doesn’t make sense. Service was kind, but the food really needs improvement.

Um Plateau is a stylish restaurant located in Luxembourg City, offering a classy bar and a beautiful outdoor terrace. It's an ideal spot for various occasions, whether it's a business dinner, evening with friends, or a romantic date. The restaurant is known for its delicious dishes such as scallops with pea mousse and roasted salmon with baby vegetables. While it may be considered slightly more expensive, the quality of the food makes it worth the extra cost.
After planning for a long time to visit this place, we finally made it for lunch on my birthday! I found the lunch menu great and decided to go with it! It was really delicious, though I regret picking the fried prawn, soup would have been a better choice! The ambience of the place is really cozy wit great interiors!

The restaurant „Um Plateau“ is nicely located between The Gronn and the old town in Luxembourg city. The food and the drinks were good. Not excellent but you are not doing anything wrong here. Only 4 out of 5 because there are better price/value restaurants in Luxembourg. The menu is changing and has some good suggestions depending on the season. Nevertheless Um Plateau is a good choice. Make sure to reserve online. The restaurant accept card payments, inlcuding american express.

A nice-looking place, but completely just for Instagram — one of those spots that look amazing on social media, but in reality, not so much. I even ordered a dish that was listed on their Instagram menu, only to find out they didn’t have it in person. The staff was extremely slow, seemed lost, and the food had no flavor at all. I ordered a tagliata, and the waiter didn’t even ask how I wanted it cooked; if I hadn’t mentioned it myself, it wouldn’t have been done properly. The salmon was completely overcooked, dry and tasteless. The manager seemed totally out of it: rude and disrespectful, both to us and to the staff. The female managers, on the other hand, were very kind and attentive, the only positive part of the experience.

We visited this restaurant because of the Michelin guide recommendation. Nice place with a good vibe, but we personally have no idea why this restaurant made it into the Michelin Guide. The starters are okay-ish but lack exciting flavours. The lobster roll we had as a main course is a traffic accident on a plate—for €39. This was followed by a wine that was sold by the glass but had very obviously been open for at least a day, probably more. The dessert was okay-ish, but nothing special. Kind staff, but with very little knowledge and communication.

Um plateau is one of our go to restaurants when in Luxembourg. The restaurant has an amazing kitchen where everyone can find something they’ll like and be amazed. For a wine lover, the wine list is also a treat with a wide variety of wines from Bourgogne, france to barolo, Italy but also offering many local or more exotic options. The only lesser point making the difference between a 4 or 5 stars is that the restaurant seems to start suffering from its own success, having been seated on the high tables next to the bar which seems to be also used as a waiting area and hence we were quickly surrounded (would even say swamped) by people being put there until their table freed up. Hence, a recommendation for the restaurant would be to either exclusively use that area for this purpose or as a guest to specifically request a non high table to avoid this.

Trendy, stylish, yet deeply rooted in taste. Um Plateau combines design and flavor effortlessly. Inside feels like a mix of urban Paris and cozy Luxembourg charm. I went for the tuna tartare and risotto — both perfectly seasoned. Cocktails were creative, service quick and professional. What impressed me most was how they manage to make fine dining feel relaxed. A great place for business dinners or date nights. The terrace is lovely during summer evenings, surrounded by city lights. Prices are fair for the experience — definitely among Luxembourg’s top spots.

Located in the trendy Clausen neighborhood of Luxembourg, Restaurant Le Sud offers a high-end dining experience with a mix of French and Luxembourg-style cuisine. The elegant ground-level restaurant and terrace, accessible by a glass lift, provide impressive city panoramas. The relatively compact menu features beautifully prepared dishes like the signature pigeonneau de Monsieur Thierry Laurent and truffle risotto paired with local Mosel wine or Clausel beer.
Located in the Grund district with a rooftop view that could rival any Parisian terrace. The interior is chic, warm, and romantic — perfect for evenings. I had the lamb confit and seasonal vegetables, followed by a chocolate dessert that was simply divine. Staff were attentive but never rushed; they explained ingredients with enthusiasm. The wine list is extensive, with great local bottles. Every detail felt curated, from the plating to the background music. It’s the kind of restaurant that makes you slow down and enjoy life — absolutely worth the visit if you’re in Luxembourg.

It was my first time at the restaurant, but sadly, I wasn’t convinced. Some dishes just didn’t work for me. The egg dish had two fillings,one was good, the other not to my taste. The raw fish with green sorbet was overwhelmed by a strong dill (aneth) flavor, which masked the fish completely. The main course fish was well-cooked, but again the dill-flavored potatoes didn’t appeal to me. Dessert was tasty, but overall, the experience fell short. Also, no butter with the bread, which I think is a must in a place like this. We also waited so long for our dishes that we spend more than 4 hours at this restaurant. The service was very good and friendly.

I paid 18 euros for some quite plane scampi (probably frozen and then fried?). This was in the rooftop bar, I get it, finger food…BUT If you are the rooftop of a pricy restaurant and charge such fee , be sure your tapas are great . Never coming back … the 18 euros was for one portion of 4 scampi (it said 5 on the menu as well!)

The restaurant has good views of the valley, which is even better from the terrace. There are two separate places, the restaurant and the rooftop bar. Both are served from the same kitchen. The bar serves overpriced finger food. You are better off choosing the restaurant if you plan to eat. The interior of the restaurant is nicely done, although the ceiling's design is a bit out of place. The background music is just about audible to not disturb your conversation. At the time, slow jazz was played. The staff is corteous and well trained. Sometimes, the direct translations come off as akward from the staff..."have you appreciated the food". Also, one staff member kept trying to crack jokes about us finishing our plates. It became disturbing as the courses progressed. Service was slow. Bringing bread, after asking, took 10+ min. The drink at the terrace took 20 minutes, and it took 15 min until the order was taken. The menu has set as well as limited a la carte options. The dishes were well presented and tasty, albeit too salty. Portion size is small, as you would expect from fine dining. It's worth a try.

Atmosphere was really nice when we visited this place, the service was so and so, the food taste and plating was good. 4/5, overall experience was good, the atmosphere was really nice and it was sunny that day. Check the menu and prices before, it is bit high.

Boutique Léa Linster Delicatessen is a charming gourmet shop that showcases the culinary prowess of Luxembourg's renowned chef, Lea Linster. Nestled in the picturesque village of Frisange, this delightful spot offers an inviting atmosphere where visitors can indulge in exquisite treats. The highlight here is undoubtedly the melt-in-your-mouth madeleines, which have garnered a loyal following and are often described as some of the best around.
Before trying the madeleines here, I never had a great impression on mareleines. I never understood what the hype for madeleines were. Even at Oberweis, the madeleines are so so, at best 5/10. I’ve tasted madeleines all over the world and they have always been just OK. The madeleines here are exceptional. We bought 2 to try. They were so good, we bought 4 the next time. Before leaving Luxembourg, we bought 8. The classic ones. You can taste the quality and freshness. Indescifrable but when you taste it, you will know. 2 euro a piece is a bit pricey but for the quality, it was worth it.

Bumped into this quaint delicatessen while looking for a cafe. So I decided to stop and have my very first madeleine ever. It perfectly pairs with tea, delicately sweet. I also enjoyed the atmosphere just as much. I’ll definitely be back.

What a Surprise. Entered to this place to have a coffee and a bite. Never knew it is where world famous madelines are made by the famous one and only Paul Bocuse award winning female chef Lea Linster. So tasty, soft and crunchy only at the edge. Had a quiche out of this world. Thank you so much for the wonderful service Great Chef. Bought also her cook book and wine. My shere luck to visit such a place of a world reknown personality.

The smell you can’t resist, the taste you won’t forget! The irresistible smell of freshly baked madeleines of this store will definitely pull you inside. Whether you are for any administrative reasons at the Bierger Center or just hanging out in the Center/Hamilius area, this is a must visit to please your taste buds. I always try around half past five as there are more changes of getting the instantly baked madeleines.

These are the best madeleines in the world — perfectly soft, buttery, and absolutely unforgettable. Nothing else even comes close!

As someone passionate about cooking, Chef Lea Linster has always been my role model since I first learned about her. Naturally, I dreamed of tasting her famous Madeleines whenever I visited Luxembourg, and finally, that dream came true! Not only did I get to enjoy the best Madeleine I’ve ever had, but the experience was made even more special when I entered the store and saw Chef Lea herself, warmly greeting her guests with a radiant smile. If you’re lucky, you might even have the chance to enjoy a warm, genuine conversation with one of the top chefs in the world. An unforgettable culinary moment. Absolutely worth the visit!

A must experience, really great taste, unfortunately we were short on time and only had time to take some madelaines to take away.

When in Luxembourg, go there and have a couple of Leas Madeleines, a coffee and/or a glass of her Cremant. They bake them freshly during the whole day, warm, tasty.. and it smells so good.
