Great little museum with many exhibits from the black gold mining era.

🚪 **Porte de Sierck – Historic City Gate of Rodemack** The **Porte de Sierck** is the imposing northern gate of the medieval city walls of **Rodemack** – once the entrance to the fortress from the direction of Sierck-les-Bains. Built in the **15th century**, it was fortified with battlements, machicolation, and a round-arched portal and was part of the defense system of the "1,000-year-old city." 🧱 Today, the gate is excellently preserved and leads visitors directly into the romantic alleys of the historic town center. A little further on, the battlement walk begins along the city wall. **Tip:** This is an ideal photo spot in the early morning or in diffused light – then the sandstone walls are particularly atmospheric. Anyone walking through the gate immediately feels transported back to the Middle Ages.

🛡️ **Ouvrage de Kobenbusch – Mighty Fortification of the Maginot Line** The **Ouvrage de Kobenbusch**, located south of Cattenom near the Luxembourg border, is one of the large underground fortifications of the **Maginot Line**. It was built between 1930 and 1935 and consisted of several combat blocks, underground connecting tunnels, a barracks, ammunition depots, and machine rooms – on several levels, anchored deep in the limestone. ⚙️ Particularly noteworthy: The technical systems were designed to be self-sufficient for months – including power generation, ventilation, a kitchen, and a hospital. The fort was occupied without a fight during World War II, continued to be used in part after the war, and is now privately owned. 🚷 It's **not open to the public**, but some ventilation towers and blockhouses are still visible in the forest near the D64 road (between Cattenom and Berg-sur-Moselle). **Tip:** For Maginot fans, a walk through the forest is worthwhile – with a little research, you'll find several bunker remains. Respect barriers, as some entrances are unstable or secured.

You are in the middle of the pithead of the former "Walert" mine. For almost a century, from the 1880s to 1963, iron ore was mined here, both in the opencast and in galleries. At the time, the mine mainly supplied the factories of Rodange and Seraing in Belgium, where the ore was transported by rail. The site became a museum in 1973 and the use of the pithead facilities was changed: the first offices were converted into a brewery; the locomotive shed now houses the visitor reception; the playground occupies the former wood stock, while the red rocks of the opencast mine are slowly being reclaimed by vegetation. The most spectacular part of the mine is underground (44.5 ha concession). The guided tour begins in the Museum reception building. The train will then take you underground for a walking tour through the galleries, among the tools and machines of three generations of miners.

The tour takes you through the tunnels of the "Walert" mine, which was in operation from 1891 to 1963. Discover more than 70m underground large tunnels on two levels and impressive cavities in which your museum guide brings the time of the miners to life again. The machines and tools on display testify to iron ore mining in the region from the 1860s to the closure of the last mine in Lorraine in 1997. https://www.mnm.lu/de/ The museum is open to individual visitors: April-June and September : Thursday - Sunday 2:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m Guided tour of the mine and mine train at 2:30 p.m., 3:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m July-August: Tuesday – Sunday 2:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m Guided tour of the mine and mine train at 2:30 p.m., 3:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m October-March : every 2nd Sunday of the month 2:00 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. (by reservation) Guided tour of the mine and mine train at 2:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m

The Musée National des Mines de Fer Luxembourgeoises is definitely worth a visit! Here you take the mine train into the tunnel and immerse yourself in the world of the miners. During the guided tour underground you will get a detailed insight into the hard and dangerous work of the miners. Visit www.mnm.lu for more information.

The National Mining Museum in Rumelange deals with the underground mining of iron ore. During the guided tour, you take the mine train into the mine and see how iron ore was mined in the past. To learn more about the museum, you can visit their website: www.mnm.lu
