Clervaux

Located in the middle of the Éislek region, the city of Clervaux is a frequently visited location.
Lovers of historical architecture will get their money's worth here: the town is dominated by the large Benedictine abbey St Maurice, the parish church Sts Côme et Damien and a castle from the 12th century. Restored after its destruction in World War 2, the castle now houses three permanent exhibitions:  The world-famous photo exhibition "The Family of Man", which is part of the UNESCO World Documentary Heritage, the Museum of models of the Castles and Palaces of Luxembourg and the Museum of the Battle of the Bulge.
Also, the city's pedestrian zone with its small shops, cafés and terraces invites you to shop and relax.
