About Cercle municipal

Visitors come to see the Bock promontory and the Corniche, Europe's so-called most beautiful balcony, from below. The village sits below these landmarks, with Rue de la Tour Jacob and Rue de Trèves running parallel to the Alzette, lined with terraced houses built for 19th-century ironworkers and bargemen.

  • Visit in the evening for the quiet atmosphere after 8pm, when the only sound is the river and the occasional train crossing the viaduct overhead.
  • If you're arriving late, note that the gorge's narrow lanes are unlit and confusing on a first visit, so plan your route to Rue Vauban in advance.
  • For dining, head to Grund, one gorge over, which has the restaurants Pfaffenthal lacks; Pfaffenthal itself has a single decent restaurant plus a bakery on Rue Laurent Menager.
