Vianden is an almost impossibly picturesque town in Luxembourg.

[edit] Get in

From Luxembourg City, take a train to Ettelbruck, and then jump on the 570 bus ( the bus station is next to the train station ). Vianden is the second to last stop on the route - ask the driver if unsure.

The whole journey from Luxembourg City takes around an hour, and costs 3 Euros for a return ticket.

It is also possible to catch a bus from the German city of Bitburg.

Vianden Castle.

There is also a museum to Victor Hugo, who stayed in the town several times.

Besides the castle tour, there is also a chairlift up to a scenic view, a swimming pool, and a zipline.

The Ancien Cinema, in addition to serving drinks and desserts, shows a variety of movies and houses a number of books on various aspects of the film industry.

The castle has a small gift shop offering the usual tourist souvenirs.
