📍 Remich
Luxembourg has two special towns,They are located in the Moselle Valley (Moselle Valley), famous for its winemaking industry, and are also admired for their unique geographical location. These two towns had a profound influence on European development. They are located in Remich (Remich) and Schengen (Schengen) on the border of France, Germany, and Luxembourg.
Remich (Remich) is a quiet town located on the banks of the Moselle, and is also the smallest town in Luxembourg. You can get there in an hour by bus 402 from central Luxembourg.
There aren't many shops or restaurants here, but it has a quiet atmosphere. One of the main features of this place is the bridge overlooking the Moselle river. Half of it belongs to Luxembourg and half to Germany.
The middle of the bridge represents the border between the two countries, so you only need to walk a few minutes to see the European Union border sign and reach another country.
📍 Schengen Schengen
Schengen (Schengen), not far from Remich, is also a quiet town located on the banks of the Moselle. What is more important is its history as the birthplace of the Schengen Agreement. You can get there in just 15 minutes by bus 432 from Remich.
The Schengen Agreement officially came into effect in 1995, enabling borderless travel between many European countries. You can visit the Schengen Museum, learn about the history and impact of the Schengen Agreement, and feel the importance of European integration.
As a junction between France, Germany, and Luxembourg, we saw a monument of hope for world peace on the riverbank outside the museum. Languages from around the world are displayed on each side, expressing the same message of “I wish peace to mankind in the world.”
In addition to this, we also saw a monument commemorating the independence of Luxembourg in 1890, and the Dutch monarch officially no longer holds the head of the Grand Duke of Luxembourg.
On the brick at the back of the monument, there are domino graffiti drawn cleverly using the shape of the brick head, which is very cute.
The most popular place for visitors to check in is this Three Kingdoms boundary buoy DE/LUX/FR located in front of the museum. Through the English letters on the buoy, visitors are told about their country. What we saw was LUX.
Finally, from the upper bridge next to the museum, you can see the Schengen road sign with a famous winery in the background. Many travelers also choose to try winemaking in the Moselle Valley!
