Luxembourg city: where the green touches your heart
A green heart in the middle of the city
In summer, Luxembourg city shows its most beautiful side. Nature is a constant companion between old fortress walls, modern architecture and historical places.
In the morning a walk through the Petruss Valley -bird voices in the ear. At lunchtime a picnic on the Kinnekswiss, where children laugh, read people, play dogs. And in the evening a concert in the open air when the sun goes down in warm gold.
Especially when « Kinnekswiss Loves …“Calls, the large park is transformed into an open concert hall. In 2025, the festival brings big names on stage again: Joyce Didonato, Chelsea Zurflüh and many other artists invite you to enjoy. Music, nature and summer air – a connection that touches.
An insider tip in the green
The microcosm is one of the special retreats. The charming café near the Villa Vauban is surrounded by trees and flowers and lies in the middle of the park. It is part of the Luga 2025the Luxembourg Urban Garden. Here creative ideas meet a relaxed summer mood. With a glass of crémant, a coffee or a small concert in the open air, the warm season can be experienced particularly intensively.
But the microcosm is just one of many examples. Everywhere in the city there are green terraces, shady gardens and quiet places that invite you to linger. Small oases that make Luxembourg city a real summer dream.
City tours that inspire
If you want to immerse yourself deeper, it is best to discover the nature of the city with a guided tour of the Luxembourg City Tourist Office. These tours combine history, environmental awareness and future thinking and make it noticeable how harmonious city and nature are connected.
The tour entitled « Be (e) Loved Luxembourg » brings visitors closer to the life of the city bees. It shows how smallest living things make an important contribution to ecological balance.
The leadership « A Walk Towards More Sustainability » links city history with environmental issues and social developments. On a walk through the city park, a lively view of the past and future opens up.
Three other tours of the Luxembourg City Tourist Office as part of the Luga 2025 invite you to see the city with new eyes:
– Through the Petruss valley, which became a living natural area again by renaturating the Peter,
– along the Alzettetal, where biodiversity and urban development are in harmony,
– Through the Parc Edouard André, in which plant diversity and art inspire each other.
If you want, you can walk across the Kirchberg or strip through the Pittoreske district of Pfaffenthal, where historical atmosphere and modern city life come together.
All guided tours can be booked on the LCTO website: www.luxembourg-city.com or in the reception office on the Knuedler (Place Guillaume II).
A summer full of lightness and joie de vivre
Luxembourg city unfolds its very own charm, especially in summer. It is alive and at the same time soothingly calm, modern and yet deeply connected to nature.
Moments that stay
What makes Luxembourg city so special is the feeling that time sometimes stands still. It is not just the sights or events that impress, the quiet moments are in between. A sunbeam that falls through the leaves, the fragrance of linden flowers in the air …
If you get involved with this rhythm, you quickly feel: this city not only gives nice experiences, but real moments to breathe, in harmony with yourself and nature.
A city that invites you to stay. At least a little longer.
