  • A Day in Luxembourg, LUXEMBOURG
    A Day in Luxembourg, LUXEMBOURG Why you should visit Luxembourg Luxembourg is the epitome of “the charming European city” we all grew up imagining. It’s amazingly cosmopolitan but not overwhelming, except for its extremely complex history. Its gorges traverse the city, making it a spectacular three-dimensional city, with lit-up fortifications along the walls of the gorges -- perfect for the historian and the romantic. And the food is a lovely mix of French, German, Italian and of course Luxembourgish. Three things you might be surprised to learn about Luxembourg and the people 1. Luxembourg is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its old quarters and fortifications. 2. General George Patton is buried here 3. Villeroy & Boch ceramics started in Luxembourg Favorite Walks/areas of town Go to the visitors center in Place Guillaume to sign up for any of the many fantastic—and reasonably priced—group or individual walking, biking or driving (even in your own car) historic tours with an official guide. The tours can include visits to: • Historic city center • The Petrusse gorge next to the city center • The historic Grund, down below the city center • Clausen, near the Grund • Petrusse and Bock Casemates Other very good things to do/see • American Military Cemetery, Hamm: A beautiful cemetery with more than 5,000 soldiers, most of whom fell in the Battle of the Bulge of WWII in 1944-45. The cemetery also has an impressive chapel and is the burial place of General George Patton. www.abmc.gov/cemeteries/cemeteries/lx.php • German Military Cemetery, Sandweiler: A short drive from the Hamm cemetery, this cemetery has a much more somber feel to it, containing more than 10,000 German soldiers who perished in the Battle of the Bulge in 1944-45.

    Umgehungsstrasse Mersch – Colmar-Berg / Grossherzogtum Luxemburg Grünbrücke „Rouscht“ und Massnahmen zur Verminderung von Zerschneidungswirkungen Landschaftstagung 2013 Strassenplanung und Umweltverträglichkeitsstudie Die Umgehungsstraße Mersch / Colmar-Berg ist ein Teilstück der in den 1980er Jahren begonnenen „Nordstrasse“, die die zentralen und nördlichen Landesteile Luxemburgs an das Zentrum Stadt Luxembourg anbinden soll. Die Umsetzung der Maßnahme erfolgte und erfolgt bis heute in Teilabschnitten durch den Bau von Umgehungsstraßen, um die entlang der Nationalstraße 7 gelegenen Ortschaften vom Durchgangsverkehr zu entlasten. Der Bau erfolgt von der Stadt Luxembourg vierspurig als Autobahn bis nach Colmar- Berg, von dort dreispurig bis Diekirch. Ministerium für nachhaltige Im Rahmen der Umweltverträglichkeitsstudie zum Bau des Entwicklung und Infrastruktur Teilstückes Mersch / Colmar-Berg (1995-1998) wurde darauf Luxemburg hingewiesen, dass die Zerschneidung der Landschaft eine wesentliche Auswirkung des geplanten Straßenneubaus sein wird. Im Bereich der Umgehung Mersch / Colmar-Berg schneidet die Trasse einen der letzten Waldkorridore im Zentrum Luxembourgs. Darüberhinaus kommen auf dem Höhenzug nördlich von Mersch verbreitet Kleingewässer vor. Diese in den dichten Tonmergeln des Keupers entstandenen „Mardellen“ liegen beiderseits des Strassenprojektes und beherbergten noch bis in die 1980er Jahre eine der letzten Laubfroschpopulationen Luxembourgs.

  • Kulturweg Wasserbillig
    Kulturweg Wasserbillig Sentier culturel de Wasserbillig Projekt der Gemeinde Mertert mit Untertstützung von Projet de la Commune de Mertert avec le soutien de Fonds européen agricole pour le développement rural: l‘Europe investit dans les zones rurales Wandel im ländlichen Raum und nachhaltige Dorfentwicklung Das Gesetz vom 18. April 2008 zur Förderung der Entwicklung des länd- lichen Raumes strebt in seinem thematischen Schwerpunkt III eine Ver- besserung der Lebensqualität im ländlichen Raum sowie die Diversifi- zierung der ländlichen Wirtschaft an. Dabei gilt es, den ländlichen Raum insgesamt zu stärken, nach dem Prinzip der Subsidiarität und im Sinne eines ausgewogenen Ausgleichs zwischen Stadt und Land. Nicht gleichar- tige, sondern gleichwertige Lebens- und Arbeitsbedingungen gegenüber den städtischen Gebieten sollen der Landbevölkerung angeboten werden. Um die ökonomischen und soziokulturellen Strukturen auf dem Lande oder in den Dörfern zu verbessern bzw. weiter zu entwickeln, wurden im Schwer- punkt III des Ländlichen Entwicklungsprogramms PDR 2007 – 2013 sieben verschiedene Fördermaßnahmen zusammengestellt. Diese Maßnahmen richten sich sowohl an öffentliche wie private Projektträger oder auch an lokale Vereine als Initiatoren. Neben der Förderung der landwirtschaftlichen, wein- u. garten- oder waldbaulichen Sektoren sieht dieser PDR-Programmschwerpunkt weitere Maßnahmen zur Unternehmensgründung und -entwicklung so wie zur Be- rufsbildung und Informationsvermittlung vor. Auch das Angebot des Tourismus im ländlichen Raum soll qualitativ er- weitert werden. Unter dieser Maßnahme wurde demnach das Projekt „Kulturweg Wasserbillig“ der Gemeinde Mertert durch unser Departement Ländliche Entwicklung unterstützt. Zusätzlich sollen die Grundversorgung sowie die Dienstleistungen für die Landbevölkerung und die ländliche Wirtschaft verbessert werden. 2 weitere Massnahmen des PDR-Schwerpunktes 3 setzen schließlich den Fokus auf die integrierte ländliche Entwicklung mit der nachhaltigen Dorfer- neuerung sowie der Aufwertung des ländlichen Naturerbes.
