Street in Luxembourg City

Grund District

The Grund is the neighborhood in the valley below the old town, reached by a free public elevator from the Plateau du Saint-Esprit or by walking the zigzag path down. Free to walk. The Alzette River, stone bridges, small cafes, and the Neumunster Abbey (cultural center with free exhibitions) fill the valley. Budget travelers take the free elevator down and discover a quiet village-like neighborhood beneath one of Europe’s wealthiest capitals.
