EDITORS COMMENTS
Fort Thungen, a historic fortification nestled in the heart of Luxembourg City's Drai Eechelen Park, is a striking reminder of the country's rich military history. Circa 1910s, this photograph captures the fort's unique architecture, situated in the Kirchberg quarter. The three towers, colloquially known as Trois Glands or Three Acorns, are distinctively adorned with acorn-topped spires. The fort's shape, with its angular walls and towers, stands in sharp contrast to the lush greenery of the park, creating an intriguing juxtaposition. Fort Thungen, a testament to the past, continues to be a popular tourist attraction, offering visitors a glimpse into Luxembourg's storied past.
