You're standing on the Fishmarket, the Fëschmaart, in the historic heart of Luxembourg City. This is home to the National Museum of Archaeology, History and Art. Take a good look at the building. It's actually several buildings: a row of elegant old townhouses, joined by a large modern block. That new part was designed by the firm Christian Bauer et Associés and opened in 2002. Old and new together make up one museum.
