Culture Luxembourg

The Mining Bassin Foundation is a public utility establishment created in 1989 which aims to contribute to the cultural enhancement of the mining basin region, by participating in the organization of activities and supporting projects in the fields of industrial heritage, culture, tourism and innovation. Its website is particularly interesting to visit.

This non-profit association was born in 2008 from a partnership between the Parc Naturel de l'Our, the commune of Clervaux and the organizers of the exhibition "The Family of Man". Contemporary photographic exhibitions are scattered around the town and linked by a 2 km walk. The little extra? You can borrow a Polaroid with 10 photos free of charge from the Tourist Office every weekend. An ideal activity for the whole family, and a great way to introduce children to photography!
