Berg Castle, Grand Ducal residence in Colmar-Berg, Luxembourg

Located near the confluence of the Alzette and Attert rivers, Berg Castle features fortress-like architecture with gray stone walls and a central tower.

The current structure, completed in 1911, replaced an earlier castle from the 15th century after Grand Duke William IV ordered its reconstruction in 1906.

Berg Castle maintains its status as the primary residence of the Grand Ducal family of Luxembourg, displaying their flag when they are present.

The castle remains closed to public access, but visitors can observe its exterior architecture and grounds from designated viewing points around the perimeter.

Three Luxembourg monarchs were born within the castle walls: Grand Duchess Marie-Adelaide, Grand Duchess Charlotte, and Grand Duke Jean.
