The abbey buildings, the basilica with the saint's tomb in its crypt and the medieval market square are still at its heart. Across the river S\u00fbre is Germany.\r\n\r\nThe town is best known for two things. Every Whit Tuesday, thousands of people hop through the streets in the Dancing Procession, a medieval tradition now on UNESCO's list of intangible heritage. And it is the starting point for the Mullerthal, known as Luxembourg's Little Switzerland: forest, moss and sandstone rock formations cut into narrow gorges.\r\n\r\nOne or two days is right, with hiking.

The Wolfsschlucht, the Wolf's Gorge, is a short hike from the town centre through narrow sandstone passages.
