Directions
From the bus station towards the market square, the trail leads through Rue de Luxembourg and then climbs along the 14 Stations of the Cross of the Kalvarienberg up to the Kreuzerberg, where the "Kreuzkapelle" chapel, built in 1737, is located. On the “Hougeriicht” hill, where from the Middle Ages until modern times justice for serious crimes was carried out (only the place name remains), the site known as “Longkaul”, where a rockslide occurred centuries ago, offers an impressive view over the vineyards and the Moselle valley. After crossing Oberdonvener Straße, the trail continues through the “Baambësch” to the “Réimerdenkmol”, a Gallo-Roman funerary monument located along the former Roman road from Metz to Trier, heading towards “Potaschberg”. Where industrial and artisanal zones dominate today, potash used to be extracted. The route then crosses National Road 1 and continues towards the forest area “Gruussfooscht”. Finally, it returns to the bus station via the residential areas of Grueweréck – Rue de Wecker – Rue des Remparts (where remains of the former fortress can still be seen).
