Further information
Discover the fascinating town of Wiltz on this tour, which begins in the picturesque courtyard of the castle. The castle now houses the tourist office, the national museum of brewing and the museum of the Battle of the Bulge. Your guide will tell you more about the surroundings of the castle of the former Counts of Wiltz and give you an insight into the town's historical background. Wiltz has a centuries-old tradition in the art of brewing and has also played an important role in leather production. Admire the castle's monumental exterior Renaissance staircase, which serves as the backdrop for the famous "Wiltz Festival" in summer. The tour also passes by the witches' tower, from where the squire in armour greets you and shows you the way to the forests of Wiltz. After the tour, you can make a diversion to the "Wiltz Garden" or linger a little longer in the town.
