Diekirch, rue J. Merten

The swimming pool complex in Diekirch comprises a covered pool. In summer, it’s time for fun on the beach, because that’s when the “Diekirch Plage” is set up – complete with beach volleyball, outdoor pool, mini-football, a children’s playground, drinks, snacks and ice cream. Admission to all of this summer fun is free of charge. During the school holidays (outside the summer holidays), the swimming pool is open continuously during the week from 14:00 to 19:30.

Cycling through the Éislek: the Rentabike Dikrich regional bike hire service encourages slow tourism and protection for the environment. City bikes, mountain bikes for adults, teenagers and children are all available. For four bikes or more, they can be delivered to a location of your choice. For your safety, we provide a helmet free of charge.

The Donkey Challenge consists of three exciting tours: Donkey Challenge Haard, Donkey Challenge Seitert, and Donkey Challenge Härebierg. Each of these tours gives you the opportunity to conquer the three impressive mountains of Diekirch and enjoy the beauty and diversity of nature. Along the paths, you will not only discover fascinating landscapes but also gain interesting information about Diekirch, its rich history, and the local fauna and flora. If you complete all three tours, you can celebrate your success with a special memento. At the Diekirch Tourist Info, an exclusive patch featuring the Donkey of Diekirch awaits you.

In the centre of the historic Old Town of Diekirch, a museum reveals the secrets of the town’s past. You can see exciting historic discoveries such as an ancient Roman mosaic and find out what archaeologists, historians and geologists have studied here – from the mysteries of faith to urban phenomena. A large number of educational activities round off the museum’s programme of events, such as special workshops for children about the exhibitions. It’s definitely also worth making a detour to the nearby St Laurence Church which dates back to the 7th century. The town’s mascot is a donkey, and in the pedestrian zone you’ll find the Donkey Fountain, from which beer flows on special occasions!
