The story

Story · Fort Thüngen

  • en
  • nl

You're standing at Fort Thüngen, in Dräi Eechelen Park on the Kirchberg, in the north-east of Luxembourg City. Have a look at those three round towers. Each one is crowned with a stone acorn. That's why locals simply call this place the Three Acorns, or Dräi Eechelen in Luxembourgish. In French it's Trois Glands.
