A wide winter panorama embraces the town of Vianden with its majestic castle dominating from the hilltop. The colorful houses of the village are arranged at the foot of the fortress, with snow-covered roofs creating a mosaic of soft colors. The castle, with its towers and bastions, stands out against the wooded hills that close the horizon. The winter sky with low clouds adds drama to the scene. Vianden, located in the Our valley on the border with Germany, owes its fame to this extraordinary castle and the fact that Victor Hugo stayed here in exile, immortalizing it in his writings and drawings.
