Current Travel Situation
Romania to Luxembourg: What You Need to Know
Romania and Luxembourg are both EU and Schengen members. Luxembourg is one of the world's wealthiest countries and a major EU administrative and financial hub. It has the highest GDP per capita in the EU. Luxembourg City's old fortifications are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Luxembourg is also known as the most cosmopolitan country in Europe, with nearly half its population being non-Luxembourgish.
How to Get There
Luxembourg connects naturally with Belgium (Brussels, 2.5 hours by train), France (Metz, 1 hour; Paris, 2 hours), and Germany (Trier, 45 minutes; Frankfurt, 3 hours). It is perfectly placed for a Benelux tour.
Money & Banking
Luxembourg uses the Euro (EUR). Romania uses the Romanian Leu (RON). Exchange or use Revolut/Wise. Luxembourg is expensive - one of the priciest countries in Europe for accommodation and dining.
Practical Tips
Luxembourg City highlights include the Bock Casemates (tunnels beneath the old city), the Grund riverside quarter, Place d'Armes, the Grand Ducal Palace, and the beautiful Moselle wine valley to the east. Luxembourg is small enough to explore in 2-3 days. The public transport in Luxembourg is free (all buses, trams, and trains within the country are free of charge since 2020).

What are the Bock Casemates?

Is Luxembourg worth visiting or is it just a transit stop?
Luxembourg City is absolutely worth a visit of 1-2 days for its beautifully preserved fortified old town, excellent museums, and charming Grund riverside area. It combines perfectly with Belgium, France, and Germany.
