Clervaux

Visit Clervaux for a half‑day: see the castle and the Family of Man exhibition, then hike nearby; 4–6 h total.

Clervaux is a small northern town in Luxembourg’s Our Natural Park. Its main sights – the 12th‑century castle, the Family of Man photography exhibition, and the Abbey of St Maurice – are within walking distance, so a half‑day is enough. Add a short hike on the surrounding trails if you have extra time.
