Chemin de la Corniche, Elevated promenade in Ville-Haute, Luxembourg
This stone walkway stretches along the ramparts of Luxembourg City, providing views across the Alzette Valley and the Grund district below.
Spanish and French forces constructed these defensive walls during the 17th century, creating a fortified passage above the Alzette River.
The promenade connects multiple architectural periods of Luxembourg, from medieval fortifications to contemporary structures of the upper town.
Visitors can access the walkway from both the Bock Promontory and the Holy Ghost Citadel, with several entry points along its length.
The removal of defensive loopholes from the original walls in 1870 transformed this military structure into a public observation point.
