Château de Koerich

Elements of Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles can all be seen at this castle at the Eisch Valley's western end. Originally built in the late 12th century, various owners added to it over the centuries, resulting in the melange of styles. It fell into disrepair in the 1850s but was restored over the past decade and now forms the centrepiece to Koerich's music festival

Although only 11m high today, the tower and 3.5m-thick exterior walls once reached 30m in height.
