The Terres Rouges (Red Lands) of southern Luxembourg tell the story of the Grand Duchy's industrial revolution. Once the heart of the European steel industry, this dramatic landscape of red earth, abandoned quarries, and industrial monuments is being reclaimed by nature. The Minett Trail traverses the region, passing through nature reserves, modern sculpture parks, and fascinating mining museums. Esch-Belval's former blast furnaces have been transformed into a cultural quarter, symbolizing Luxembourg's remarkable reinvention.
