After initially being privately owned and serving as a boarding school for the Sisters of the Christian Doctrine (1851–1950), Château de Wiltz was acquired by the Luxembourg state in 1951 to establish an integrated retirement home, which was run by the Carmelite nuns until 1985. Today, it houses the offices of the Tourist Information Office (Syndicat d'Initiative), the St. Sebastian Scouts, and, since September 2012, the Brussels Business Institute of Higher Education (BBI), an international management school for the hotel and tourism industry, as well as the United Business Institutes (UBI), within the castle's historic walls. The 13th-century square tower served as the entrance to the first castle and was accessible via a wooden drawbridge. To the right of it stood the linden tree where court was held, which explains the place's name: Lannepesch.

Beautiful paths

The actual, first castle of Wiltz was located in Niederwiltz, where the deanery church stands today. It was intended to protect the town from its enemies, but the location was so poorly chosen that it was repeatedly captured. In the 13th century, in search of a more favorable site, the Lords of Wiltz built the new castle on a higher rocky outcrop. Under the reign of Count Jan, construction of the Renaissance castle, which still stands today, began in 1631. The new building was completed around 1720. Today, the castle houses the National Museum of Brewing and the Museum of the Battle of the Bulge, as well as a tourist information center. In June and July, the castle's grand staircase serves annually as the stage for the Wiltz Festival. Concerts, theater events, and other artistic performances are presented live on stage in the magnificent amphitheater against the backdrop of the castle.

You climb up the Rosenberg through the vineyard and enjoy fantastic views of the river.
