How amazing is that? A waterfall in the middle of town!
The Leuk pushes its way through an old town lined with well-frequented restaurants, tumbling down several steps in the middle of the town and driving three water wheels.
Saarburg also has a lot to offer otherwise, such as the picturesque old town, the Saarburg ruins high above the city, the St. Laurentius church and of course the Saar and the beautiful landscape around Saarburg.

Small, well-designed market with many places to stop for refreshments right by the Leukbach, a few small pedestrian bridges and the sound of the waterfall in the background.
Often overrun with tourists, but still atmospheric.
