Description
The "Hollow Tooth" tower ruin with Saint Michael's Church in the background in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg.
It was here that Count Siegfried built his Castle of Lucilinburhuc in 963, providing a basis for the development of the town which became Luxembourg.
The Hollow Tooth is the only remain of one of the fortress gates of the old castle on the Bock rock.
Saint Michael's Church is the oldest extant religious site in Luxembourg City. It was built on the spot in 987 as the castle chapel for the Count of Luxembourg. However, over the following centuries, the building was destroyed, rebuilt, and renovated several times. Its current appearance dates to 1688, and unites Romanesque and Baroque architectural styles.
