Vianden
The picturesque village of Vianden, situated on the banks of the
Our River and guarded by a magnificent restored medieval castle,
makes a pleasant day trip about 25 miles (40km) north of the city
of Luxembourg. The castle dates back to the 9th century and was
originally the home of the counts of Vianden, powerful nobles
between the 11th and 13th centuries. The ruined castle was restored
in the 1980s and now houses a museum that recaptures life in the
Middle Ages and recounts the area's troubled history. In the small
town below visitors can sip tangy Moselle wines beside the stream
and the cobblestone streets, while enjoying the view of the green
hills.
