The Rives de Clausen are also part of a larger plan to enhance the suburbs of the former fortress.

It has been an integral part of Luxembourg’s fortifications since the 15th century and was later expanded by Vauban with four imposing military barracks, currently used as modern and comfortable housing for seniors. You can make a stop for a few minutes while waiting for the next train.
