The name of the square comes from a place of shelter; wish was demolished in 1933. The square was redesigned in the eightees and was part of a restoratian and reconstruction of a whole district. In the middle is the statue of Grand Duchess Charlotte.
A small place in Germany, near Luxembourg. A friend of us told us to go there. We didn't really plan to do it, but when we crossed the bridge in Echternach and we arrived in Germany, we saw a sign to Bollendorf. Well I can tell you there is nothing!! I decided to give here a call, to ask what is so exciting in Bollendorf? She said nothing its only a small place with nothing to do.
This region is also called little Switzerland. It has 5100 inhabitants and lies on the bank of the Sure wich is the border with Germany. It is also very famous for its dancing procession, the only one in the world. It takes place each Whit Thursday?
The first stone was laid in 1613. It is built in a late Gothic style. In 1820 it was consecrated Saint Mary's Church and in 1870 Pope Pius IX dedicated the cathedral to the Blessed Virgin. Between 1935 and 1938 the Cathedral was enlarged.
The first railway station of the city was operational in 1859. The basic construction material was timber. The German architects Rüdell, Jüsgen and Scheuffel planned and organized the gradual replacing of the half-timbering by modern building techniques between 1907 and 1913.
It was used by the European Community for Coal and Steel (what is now the European Union) as a venue for meetings and conventions. Nowadays it is an administrative building with several festival halls. It also hosts the Luxembourg City Tourist Office.
Built in neo classical style between 1830 and 1839. The stones of the old Franciscan monastery, wich was standing on the same square and wich was dismantled in 1829 were used to built the town hall. On both sides of the outdoor stairs two bronze lions were added in 1931..
Named after William II, King of the Netherlands and Grand Duke of Luxembourg. The square is also called Knuedler from the Luxembourgish word “Knued” denoting the knot in the belt of the Franciscan friars. Nowadays the Square is used for markets and festivals and in the middle is the statue of William II. .
This is the the city residence of the Grand-Ducal family. Since 1890 the main building has been the Grand Ducal Palace. Between 1992 to 1995 it has been restored. In my opinion it looks so unreal, reminds me of a Disneyland building.
The bridge was built between 1900 and 1903 when Grand Duke Adolph was ruling the country. At that time the bridge had the biggest stone arch in the world. It has a total lenght of 153 meters and the big double arch spans more than 85 meters at a height of 42 meters.
