The Bock Casements

The famed Casemates (Casements du Bock), a 21-kilometer network of underground corridors hewn from solid rock, are accessible from Luxembourg's Bock cliff, or Bockfiels, which is home to fortifications and cannon-loopholes. It could accommodate thousands of defenders, equipment, and horses, as well as stores, kitchens, and slaughterhouses. Today, it is possible to walk through most of these defenses. You can hire a tour guide to show you around the area while teaching you about its rich history. This is in fact one of Luxembourg's most famous tourist destinations.

The Casements total an amazing 40,000 square meters and include some structures that date back to the time of Spanish administration in 1644. Today, many of these extraordinary defenses may be explored on foot, and anyone interested in learning more about the tunnels' interesting history can take advantage of organized guided excursions.

The original castle's ruins were found in 1963 on the Bock plateau itself. There are stunning views of the Rham Plateau, the Grund district, the old 19th-century barracks, the large towers, and the 1390 Wenceslas wall remnants. The medieval castle ruins and the extensive network of tunnels and galleries known as the casemates have been listed by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites, and they continue to be a well-liked tourist destination. This can be seen as one of the Best Places To Visit In Luxembourg.
