Vianden is a commune with town status in the Oesling, north-eastern Luxembourg. It is the capital of the canton of Vianden. Vianden lies on the Our river, near the border between Luxembourg and Germany. Vianden is known for the Vianden Castle.
The scenery and local attractions have made Vianden a tourist destination in Luxembourg with many tens of thousands of visitors every year. In particular, the recently restored castle set spectacularly on the rocks above the town has become a museum which traces its history and its links with the royal families of Europe back to the Middle Ages. But many people just visit Vianden to wander through its hilly, historic streets or as a centre for walking, camping or cycling in the north of Luxembourg.
