  • Jardin des Papillons (Butterfly Garden) — a tropical greenhouse with hundreds of free-flying butterflies, a family favourite on the Route de Trèves.
  • 100% Lëtzebuerg shop — a year-round shop stocking exclusively Luxembourgish regional products (source: Luxembourg-Moselle-Wine-Region-research.md).
