    A nice tourist attraction photo spot for people to clip good picture with an awesome background of the old world building structures! It gets crowded with tourists during early and mid-day. A mandatory place to visit and capture your Luxembourg 🇱🇺 travel!

    Die Kasematten sind ein tolles Ausflugsziel. Sie gehören zum UNESCO Weltkulturerbe und sind 1644 entstanden. Die Festigung- gänge sind auf mehreren Ebenen angelegt und reichten bis 40m tief hinab. Sie sind allerdings nicht immer geöffnet. Gezählt haben wir 7 Euro für Erwachsene und 3, 50 für Kinder. Man hat einen toll Blick auf die Stadt.

    Very beautiful and interesting historical place to visit. Sculptured inside the rock, it is like a labyrinth with lots of stairs up and down. You can see the opening for the powder cannons and in couple of them you can still see these cannons. You need to buy a ticket for entry.

    We went there in June and it wasn't listed as closed. We had already paid for overpriced parking so we stayed in the city. Luxemburg is way overprotective, food is almost twice as expensive as in Germany. So is all the shopping. The culture is not worth the price. I recommend visiting Trier instead !

    This is one for the bucket list. The Casemates are well maintained and the guide is very informative. For all history lovers this is a must see. Great visit for families as well just be sure to book in advance.

    Die Petruss Kasematten sind der Hammer , Wenn man ein Fan von Luxemburg ist und sich auch für die napoleonische zeit interessiert ein muss . Der Führer hat alle unsere Fragen Perfekt beantwortet und das Fachwissen war herausragend. Wir hatten eine Deutsche Führung gebucht

    The Casemates belong to the UNESCO World Heritage. They originated at a time when the Spanish were modernising mediaeval works and building large bastions, such as that of the Beck, whose platform is occupied by the present Place de la Constitution (Constitution Square).

    Stunning views, a site definitely worth visiting, might be even better during summer.

  • 5/5 Kurt B. 1 year ago on Google • 152 reviews
    Ah, what a beautiful experience. The place is full of history. Prepare yourself to dig into the undergrounds of the city and to get to know the old city fortifications. There are a lot of steps downward but the place is very well conserved and the guide is awesome. It's worth the visit.

    Superb experience, really glad I took the tour. Guide was excellent although commentary in French very clear and signs helped fill gaps in understanding. Highly recommend

    The place is full of histroy with exciting underground walks!!!

  • 5/5 Alice N. 5 months ago on Google • 12 reviews
    We had a wonderful tour of the casemates and it’s was really interesting with fantastic guide who took us underground to see the history of Luxembourgs Fort. The guide was very knowledgeable and speaks four languages to could translate easily. We really enjoyed the 45 min tour. This is not a tour for the disabled as it involves taking more than 200 steps down into the fort.

    short and interesting travel in the history.

  • 4/5 Florin D. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely underground maze... however, two months wait for an English tour seems a bit overrated...

  • 4/5 Tamara L. 10 months ago on Google
    Untergrund visite...mit Tourguide, es dauert ungefähr 45 min.... Intressant und informativ,hat mir sehr gut gefallen, mit den kleinen gänge und der Belichtung

  • 4/5 Kai P. 9 months ago on Google
    Die Führung war hervorragend und informativ. Keinerlei Wartezeit durch Buchung. Ansonsten ok und die angepriesenen Audio- Lichteffekte waren nicht so umfangreich.

    DO NOT RECOMMEND - Go to the other Casemates in Lux. We arrived 3 minutes late and the tour had already departed. We asked to change our visit to another time but they told us tickets are non refundable and they offered no alternative. 6 tickets = 90 Euros lost. The lady at the tourist office was a bit rude. In the tickets there is nothing written on the tolerance of waiting time, in the other Lux Casemates it is 15 minutes. In this one nothing. Customer experience at its worse.

  • 5/5 Rachel F. 4 years ago on Google
    Much less crowded than the other casemates and we accessed this from Grund. Beautiful, open, peaceful, and a view of the city.

  • 5/5 Laurent Z. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice journey into the past of the Luxembourg Fortress from the XVII Century up to WW 2. Lots of Steps to climb. Not suited for disabled people.

  • 4/5 SACHIT V. 6 years ago on Google
    Great open area for walking and local events.

  • 5/5 Luis 4 years ago on Google
    Bring a light (the phone, lantern, etc.) As some áreas are poorly lighted. As it is almost a cave and some spiral staircases, appropiate shoes help. Do not miss the views from both sides, specially the views of the Abbey.

  • 4/5 Iris M. 4 years ago on Google
    Lovely to wander around. A bit of everything in the area, food, shops, etc

    (Translated by Google) The very well-kept garden is located on the northern slope of the valley that runs through the city. Here is among other things the large flagpole that can be seen from afar (Original) Der sehr gut gepflegte Garten befindet sich am nördlichen Hang des Tales, das die Stadt durchzieht. Hier steht u.a. der große Flaggenmast, den man schon von weitem sieht

    (Translated by Google) Have to say that it looks impressive and then it is only part of what is left. You have to check if they haven't dismantled it (Original) Moet zeggen dat het er indrukwekkend uitziet en dan is het maar een gedeelte wat er is over gebleven. Moet je nagaan als ze het niet ontmanteld hebben

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful maze in Luxembourg. If you are in the area, pass it by, it is absolutely worth it. We had a lot of fun looking for the exit and it was a satisfaction to do it. The kids had a lot of fun! (Original) Bellissimo labirinto in Lussemburgo. Se siete in zona passateci, ne vale assolutamente la pena. Ci siamo divertiti tantissimo a cercare l'uscita ed è stata una soddisfazione riuscirci. I bambini si sono divertiti tantissimo!
