Sketchcrawl in the old fortress Thüngen - visiting the Dräi Eechelen museum

The old fortress of Luxembourg is classified as a UNESCO world heritage. The only remaining fortress outside of the old city is Fort Thüngen that today hosts the Dräi Eechelen museum. We sketched inside and outside the museum that contains items and documents from the history of Luxembourg. 


Katia sketched the building...
