GRAND-DUCAL PALACE
📍17 rue du Marché-aux-Herbes, Ville-Haute, Luxembourg
Situated between bars and boutiques, Luxembourg's Palais grand-ducal is a bit like Luxembourg's Élysée Palace. Baroque architecture, moldings of all shapes and forms, a wrought-iron balustrade with flashes of gold... it's all "wow"!
It's still the workplace of the grand ducal Family. If you're lucky, you'll even be able to witness a solemn Changing of the Guard, with the soldiers guarding the entrance to the residence 🇱🇺
Pssst: At the moment, as well as seeing it from the outside, you can also discover its secrets on a guided tour! Reservations are mandatory.

A magnificent 85 m long and 42 m high bridge overlooking the Pétrusse valley! You'll have plenty to pull out your phone and take the most Instagrammable photos here, with views over the valley and the famous Spuerkeess building with its castle-like appearance.
To discover it, you have two options:
For the more lazy, you can cross it by boarding the tram 🚊
For those who like to stretch their legs, you can cross it on foot or by bike, literally passing right under the bridge thanks to the floating footbridge 🚲
You can also take the opportunity to go to the Place de la Constitution, right next to the bridge, to admire the statue of the Gëlle Fra.
