One afternoon we visited the Notre Dame cemetery to look for the grave of Wilhelm Voigt who became famous for the Captain of Köpenick (Hauptmann von Köpenick).
Unfortunately, we didn't find the grave on the large cemetery, but on leaving the ground we spotted the Russian Orthodox Church of St. Peter and Paul with its one golden and four blue domes. The Church belongs to the occidental diocese of Europe and is probably an unusual sight in Luxembourg
Directions:
The Church of St. Peter and Paul can be found just south of the Notre Dame cemetery.
Address: Church of St. Peter and Paul, 10 Rue J. P. Probst, 2352 Luxembourg

As a bell ringer I am particularly interested in the church bells. At one time one of the 3 towers of the Notre Dame Cathedral had burned down. The bells had melted and produced no sound. One of the bells was put beside the church to remember that.

Saint Michael's Church
St Michael Church is one of the oldest buildings in city. The history of this church goes back one thousand year and during all those years it was built, renovated, destroyed and reconstructed many times. It was recently refurbished and one can see the reflections of Gothic and Baroque architecture.

Again, Luxembourg is hardly on anyone's 'beaten path,' and if it is on your beaten path, you're going to want to see everything, so this category is kinda silly. Regardless, check out this church. This is St. Michael's Church, built in 987 AD. How's that for historical preservation? Of course, the current building isn't that old, what with the constant destruction of the city every time the Germans, French, Burgundians, English, or anyone else started getting feisty. It's still a nice building.

We visited the Notre Dame on the day Pope John Paul II died. There was a photo of him in the church and many people came to pray for him.
