Grund
Gronn
An old quarter at the bottom of the Alzette valley, surrounded by stone bridges, historic houses, and bars, and one of Luxembourg's most fairy-tale corners.
The Gronn lies beneath the Old Town cliffs. It was once the lower town where craftsmen and the poor lived, and today it is a popular spot for strolls and nightlife, with English-style pubs, restaurants, and gardens along the river. From the Old Town you can take the free public lift at Holy Spirit Heights down to the valley floor, or walk down the ramp along the Corniche. Following the river north brings you to Clausen, and heading west leads into the Pétrusse Valley Park. At night, streetlights reflect on the river and the city walls, making it ideal for night photography.
