Villa Vauban is a Luxembourg art museum that displays paintings from the 17th to 19th centuries. Here are some of the things you can do at this museum:

  • Study a sizable collection of art. The collection mainly consists of paintings and sculptures from three generous donations by Jean-Pierre Pescatore, Leo Lippmann, and Eugénie Dutreux-Pescatore. The art in the museum includes 17th-century Dutch paintings, Italian art from the 19th century, and French paintings from the 19th century.
  • Explore a unique museum building. Villa Vauban occupies the former site of a Luxembourg fort named after Louis XIV’s fortress architect, Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban. The museum stands on the fort’s foundations, and you can see part of the fort’s wall in the museum’s basement.
  • Visit temporary events at the museum. The current exhibition, Welcome to Villa Vauban, focuses on the recent additions to the museum’s collection.

You can reach Villa Vauban by several transport options: by bus, bicycle, or on foot. Bus routes 21, 22, 28, and 31 will take you there. The closest bus stop to this museum is Place de l’Étoile.
