Landratsgarten

Saarburg

On the path between the waterfall and the castle lies a hidden gem - the Landratsgarten. Around the Belvedere tower, which was built at the end of the 19th century, there are several terraced gardens with seating areas. Here you can rest, relax and let your eyes wander over the historic walls that once belonged to the Burgmannenhaus. The special feature is the 360° panoramic view of Beurig with the pilgrimage church of St. Marien, the castle complex, the Saar, the old town with the mouth of the river Leuk and the vineyards.

Waterfall

Saarburg

The cascade in Saarburg is a unique natural spectacle, which captivates innumerable visitors year after year.

The Amüseum at the waterfall

Saarburg

The first mill at the cascade is verifiable as early as 1366. The electoral mill was erected on its remnants and took over a new function as power plant in 1900. Today, the building hosts the Amüseum with an exhibition of the most significant crafts of Saarburg (tanner, bell founder, printer, cobbler and skipper), the oldest but still functional turbine, as well as an art gallery with interesting changing exhibitions.

The castle at the Saar

Saarburg

The formerly proud and mighty castle, one of the first and most impressive castles (Höhenburgen) in the West, was built by Graf Siegfried von Luxemburg in 964.
