The term "shell tower" refers to a tower that was usually open or only lightly fortified on the side facing away from the town, thus serving as a convenient defensive or observation post. In the Middle Ages, Vianden was surrounded by a ring wall with numerous towers.

The bridge connects the old town with the lower town of Vianden. The statue there is a replica; the original is located in the nearby Église Saint-Nicolas. The original statue of John of Nepomuk dates from around 1740.

Who is Victor Hugo (1802-1885), in whose name this viewpoint is located? As far as I can tell, he was a French author of works such as "Les Misérable." He stayed in Vianden regularly between 1862 and 1871 as a tourist, exile, or political refugee.
