Visitors can find out more about the viaduct's construction, its function in the city's transportation system, and its importance to the city's cultural legacy.

With its inventive design and use of iron building techniques, the Pulvermuhl Viaduct was regarded as a marvel of engineering at the time it was built. The viaduct, which spans the river and the surrounding area, is 290 metres long and 40 metres high. It has 24 arches.

The Pulvermuhl Viaduct, which connected the city to other areas of the nation as well as to neighbours like Belgium and Germany, was crucial in the development of Luxembourg's railway infrastructure. The bridge served as a crucial crossing point for troops and supplies during World War II, therefore it was also utilised for military purposes. The Pulvermuhl Viaduct has undergone a number of upgrades and repairs over time in order to retain both its structural soundness and historical significance. The bridge was completely refurbished in 2007 and reopened for pedestrian traffic, offering a beautiful walkway and cycling path with breathtaking views of the city and the surroundings.
