Bock Casemates Review

The moat ceased to exist in 1800. The tower is the main remnant of York Castle. The stone tower is now built by Henry III, ordered by Henry III, and finally completed in 1313. It has four petals in the shape of a wooden tower.

Located in the northeast of Luxembourg's Old Town, a little far from the city. However, since the fortress is not possible, it is impossible to build the Burke fortress in the city center in 1644, the Spanish rule period is the oldest relics in the city of Luxembourg, once an important military defense fortress, and later was full of demolition, including the previous 17 kilometers of artillery has been demolished. Now I can only see some relics, but I personally think it is a very good scenic spot. It is located high, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the Luxembourg Canyon around. You can also see the Arzet River. It is a good place to enjoy the scenery quietly.

Burke Fortress is not too far from Notre Dame Cathedral, about 10 minutes walk. It used to be a military castle, with a defensive role, and now it is open. Tourists can experience it on the wall themselves, but the biggest gain is to see the invincible scenery.

A great choice to take your family for a stroll when the weather is clear

Burke Fortress, the most historic monument in Luxembourg, was built in 1644 in the then-Spanish-ruled region, 40 years after French military engineers directed the expansion of its network, and then completed by the Austrians. The castle is built below more than 20 kilometers of tunnels, dark castles, from hard rock excavation, the project is quite difficult, the underground defense channel is built on several different geographical levels, and at the same time extends 40 meters down, the project can be described as complicated. After the fort was demolished in 1867, the 17-kilometer-long fortress is now well preserved and was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994. After the visit, it felt that the Burke Fortress was really dangerous and the fortress was strong.

The walls are built high, the grain is accumulated, and the wisdom of ancient China applies to Luxembourg. This small land of projectiles is the master of the military fortifications of various forts. From 963 AD, the Burgundians, Spaniards, French, Austrians, and Germans built fortifications in the fortifications. It was not until 1875 that the main structure of the ground was destroyed, but the internal bunker tunnels were intact. Most of the tunnel entrances were blocked after the London treaty was concluded. Nevertheless, 17 kilometres of tunnels have been preserved until now. The Luxembourg Visitor Centre offers a daily tour of the Bok Fortress. I think this tunnel is better to follow the local tour guide. You go in by yourself, in case you get lost, you will be finished if you can't get out. I didn't make an appointment for the explanation service on the day. I felt gloomy from the stairs to the bottom. It was too scary for a person. I still went back to the house.
