It was hard for me to get very excited about the Casements. It is a nice place to see some of the history of the city and explore the underground area but to me it seemed a bit dull. As stated before white lights are through tunnels and darker or blues lead to dead ends. There are tight spiral stair... More

The Bock Casemates were a surprise within a surprise: Luxembourg was more enthralling a city than I'd guessed, and our visit to the Casemates added a layer of depth to the city that I'd never expected to experience. These historic catacombs are in remarkable condition, and the views of the city from them are stunning — well worth the 3... More

We landed there early winter morning of January. The sleepish city had started snowing. We walk though the snow toward the bridge overlooking the valley. It was breath taking view. The city is so neat and clean. Had a short trip but worth it :)

This was such a highlight of our trip! It was neat to see the city and experience history from the casemates. We had our infant son with us and had brought our front soft carrier with us - be sure to do so if you have an infant as you will be unable to take a stroller/buggy through the casemates.... More

We just visited Luxembourg today and found out the Casemates are closed and only open during the summer months. Was very disappointed since their website says they are opened in March.

I visited Luxembourg/Casemates du Bock when some friends visited from out of town. If you are going to Luxembourg, this is a must visit. Although, I would not travel there just to see this site. Also, if the weather is bad, I would bypass this if the weather is bad.

When my wife and I arrived in Luxembourg, we parked and then spent the day just walking the city with no real agenda. We sort of just stumbled upon this area, but we were so glad we did! There are magnificent views of the "old town" Luxembourg, and lots of cool caverns to walk through, around, and on top of.... More

The Weather was FREEZING, but was not snowing or raining. City, with great views and is certainly an impressive work of 19th century engineering. worth walking across even on a cold, windy day. Unbelievable view as you keep exploring the city on foot, you will not be able to see a beautiful landscape like that anywhere in the world. Heaven... More

Whilst the inside of the ruins is closed during the winter, you can still venture all over the outside of the site without stepping inside. Lots of steps up and down but well worth crossing the river for.
