Get on board and experience an authentic tour along the old fortress of Luxembourg. Each stop on this tour of the capital is an exciting chapter in the history of the former "Gibraltar of the North". You have the possibility to get off at two stops: Rives the Clausen and Plateau du Rham. However, if you prefer, you can stay seated and enjoy your 45-minute tour on board of the City Train. A great and popular activity especially for families with children!
Itinerary
Petrusse Casemates (Pass By)
We drive along the Petruss Casemates, the ruins of the medieval fortress of Luxembourg. These Casemates are part of the UNESCO World Heritage. They date back to the time when the Spanish modernized the medieval fortifications and built large bastions such as the Bastion Beck, on whose plateau lies the present Constitution Square. They have been open to the public since 1933.
N/A (Pass By)
During the city train ride, participants will pass the made of glass panoramic lift in the old town of Pfaffenthal.
Chemin De La Corniche (Pass By)
The Chemin de la Corniche runs along the Alzette vally on the ramparts from the Bock Promontory up to the lower part of the Holy Ghost Citadel, the so-called Rondellen.
Les Rives de Clausen (Pass By)
The so-called Rives de Clausen form a district of bars and restaurants, established on the site of the former Luxembourg beer brewery “Mousel”. Situated along the Alzette, the Rives de Clausen appeal to a wide variety of tastes and attract a very cosmopolitan public, which is typical for Luxembourg. The Rives de Clausen are also part of a larger plan to enhance the suburbs of the former fortress.
Plateau du Rham (Pass By)
The Rham Plateau proudly overlooks three sides of the Alzette valley and offers a stunning view of the old city of Luxembourg. It has been an integral part of Luxembourg’s fortifications since the 15th century and was later expanded by Vauban with four imposing military barracks, currently used as modern and comfortable housing for seniors.
Take the opportunity to stop for a few minutes, stroll amongst the century-old plane trees, and walk up to the promontory behind the ruins of the four towers. Once at the top, you will have a breathtaking view of the old fortifications, the Holy-Ghost Citadel and the Corniche.

Enjoyable trip, fascinating facts. Sadly only 1 of my ear pieces worked.
Otherwise the trip was great. Learned lots about Luxembourg.

Great way to see the old parts of Luxembourg if you only have a day in the city! Especially on a really hot day when walking is out of the question.
My daughter and I!

I did it twice because my kids join me different days in Luxemburgo, I got a lot of history and really love the 40 minute drive around downtown!
Great start to our visit!
