1. Courtyard
Vianden castle and its buildings, which had attracted Victor Hugo's admiration during his visits to the Grand Duchy, have a total length of 90 m. They are surrounded by a long and beautiful fortified wall. You enter the castle through five gates, the first of which had a drawbridge.
An interior court is dominated by a huge tower on which is elevated the magnificent chapel, a jewel of Romanesque and gothic architecture.
