In downtown Luxembourg you'll set your eyes on a spectacular view of the Kirchberg district, home to several European institutions. In the valley, see the abbey of Neumünster, the city walls, the picturesque sites along the river Alzette and more. Then, after some free time in the city, explore the quaint town of Dinant, with its 15th-century collegial church and its impressive citadel. Dinant’s name originates from the Celtic “Divo Nanto”, which means “Sacred Valley”. This little town is dramatically perched on the narrow banks of the River MeuseI. This is the cradle of the Leffe beer brand and the birthplace of Adolphe Sax, the inventor of the saxophone. Will you be inspired?
