Grund district, Luxembourg City

Highlight • Settlement

The Grund is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Luxembourg City. As early as the 14th century, a hospice is mentioned in this area, which was located in the building of today's National Museum of Natural History. It was the forerunner of the city's civil hospices and provided care for the elderly, the sick, and orphans.

After the Altmünster Abbey was destroyed in 1543, the Neumünster Abbey was built in Grund. Over the centuries, its buildings have also served as a prison, and today they house a cultural and meeting center.

Alzette Bridge in the Grund district

Highlight • Bridge

The Grund Bridge is a stone bridge that carries the Münsterstrasse over the Alzette in the Grund district. It is an important link between the two sides of the charming Grund district and offers stunning views of the Alzette and the old town. From May to October, on the first Sunday of every month, the "Konscht am Gronn" art market takes place here, bringing together local and international artists presenting various art forms, from painting and sculpture to photography and glassmaking.

View of the Alzette Valley and Neumünster Abbey from the Corniche

Highlight • Viewpoint

Until 1870, some of the steep slopes of the Corniche were still equipped with stairs; only after the demolition were they leveled. A large part of the battlemented fortress walls also had to be removed, opening up a magnificent view of the Alzette valley, the lower town of Grund and the Plateau du Rham.

Highlight • Settlement

If you take the panoramic elevator from the upper town to the Pfaffenthal, you should definitely take a short walk through the valley.
