On the edge of the steelworks, now outside the industrial area, stand the old blast furnaces and new office and administration buildings, including those of universities.

The castle was built in the 13th century and redesigned several times. Today, it sits picturesquely on the edge of the forest and feels almost like an enchanted place from another era. Although the castle is currently closed to the public, the view alone is worth the trip: surrounded by trees, with its striking tower, it invites you to linger for a while.

Giele Botter, located near Pétange in southwestern Luxembourg, is a nature reserve transformed from a former open-pit iron ore mining site. The name "Giele Botter," meaning "Yellow Butter" in Luxembourgish, reflects the area's distinctive yellowish soil, a remnant of its mining past. Since the cessation of mining activities, the site has undergone significant ecological restoration, now featuring dense forests, shrubs, dry grasslands, and ponds. Visitors can explore the reserve via well-marked trails, such as the 2.5-kilometer Geological Trail, which offers insights into the region's geological history and industrial heritage. The area is also part of the Minett UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, highlighting its environmental significance.
