Wenzel photopoint, Observation point in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg
The Wenzel viewpoint provides a complete view of the Alzette Valley, the fortifications, and the modern districts of Luxembourg City from its elevated position.
The viewpoint is part of the medieval Wenzel Wall, constructed during the reign of Duke Wenceslas II between 1383 and 1419 to protect valley inhabitants.
The observation point marks a significant stop along the UNESCO World Heritage route that showcases Luxembourg's military and architectural achievements through centuries.
Visitors can reach the viewpoint through the Wenzel Circular Walk, which starts at the Luxembourg City Tourist Office and includes steep paths with stairs.
From this position, photographers can capture the rare combination of three different levels of the city: the valley, the fortified middle city, and the upper town.
