美しい場所

A wonderful resting place offering a panoramic view of the green valley of the Sûre.

Many people know about Bitburger beer, but few realize that it's grown here in this valley. Festival and harvest season are a worthwhile time to watch the harvest.

In the 18th century, the Austrian administration promoted the construction of glassworks in the Duchy of Luxembourg. In 1796, the glassworks was founded by Johann Dominik Laeis. Around 50 people were employed here, producing glass balloons, window glass, bottles and fine crystal glasses. There were two production periods from 1774 to 1811/12 and from 1843 to 1850/51. Production was finally stopped around 1850/51. Remains of the large round building with a diameter of 17m in which the glass furnace was located can still be seen. The melting furnace is said to have had a diameter of 5m. The wood for the furnace was brought to the furnaces by carts through a long corridor and the ash was transported out on the opposite side. Other buildings in the complex are the grinding shop with the narrow windows, behind each of which there was a grinding or cutting bench that was powered by a water wheel located in the neighboring mill wheel building. Also preserved are an administration building and the glass master’s house.

Fine facility that can probably be traced back to a follower of Charlemagne... at least that's what it says... I can't believe it anymore... it was before my time..🥴
