Mudam
Musée d'Art Moderne Grand-Duc Jean
A modern art museum designed by I. M. Pei, built on the site of the three-acorn fortress, with a glass atrium full of enchanting light and shadow.
Mudam opened in 2006 and is one of I. M. Pei's late works. Its limestone and glass structure is set into the old fortress walls, and it displays international contemporary art. The café and bookshop inside are also popular. Open roughly 10:00 to 18:00 (extended on Wednesdays, closed on Tuesdays). Admission is about 10 euros, and it is free for visitors under 26. It stands on the Kirchberg plateau, a tram ride to the Philharmonie-Mudam stop, and can be combined with the neighbouring Fort Thüngen museum and the Philharmonie concert hall.
