Whether you want to swim laps or just relax in the water, the fully renovated swimming pool at the René Hartmann Sports Centre is perfect for a fun day of water sports. The swimming pool is 25m long and divided into six lanes. Want to practice your cannonballs? There are two diving boards for both serious and amateur divers alike. And for those who prefer to keep their feet on the ground, there’s a 15m-long standing pool, where you can simply enjoy being in the water.

Created in 1982, in the former villa of the director of ARBED, the Nei Liicht art gallery was for a long time the one and only place in Luxembourg devoted exclusively to photographic art. Over the years, it has been able to offer a representative view of classic and modern, luxemburgish and international photography. Today photography has taken its place in the world of contemporary art and there is no longer any need to isolate it in a particular space.

The hiking route begins at the free parking lot at the Boulodrome. Here you can decide whether to start your route immediately into the green of the Haard-Hesselsbierg-Staebierg nature reserve or first explore the workers' district "Quartier Italien". The 7-kilometer circular route offers a lot of variety: from green forest, over open landscapes shaped by the open-cast mine, fields with poppies (between May and June) to red earth and rock walls. The highlight of the route is the Humpen, a former train wagon in the middle of nowhere in which slag was transported.
