    Hiking

    The Luxembourg Solidarity Monument with the Eternal Flame is located on the so-called Kanounenhiwwel (Cannon Hill) in Luxembourg City. It was erected in 1971 to commemorate the victims of World War II and the resistance and solidarity of the Luxembourg people against the German occupation.

    A central element of the monument is the Eternal Flame, which symbolizes the eternal remembrance of the victims. The paved courtyard behind the flame symbolizes the prisons, concentration camps, and barracks of the Nazis.

    On the cannon hill stands the National Monument to Solidarity, erected in 1971.

    It reminds us of the horrors of the Second World War.

    Inside, the monument reflects the atmosphere of the prisons.

    In the chapel, a boulder serves as a gravestone, in memory of the Luxembourgers who fell for their country.

    In front of the monument burns the
    "eternal flame"
