Discover more about Valentiny foundation

At the southern tip of Luxembourg, bordering the tranquil Moselle River and the renowned wine-growing hills, the Valentiny Foundation emerges as both an architectural marvel and a thriving cultural destination. Founded by acclaimed Luxembourgish architect François Valentiny, its sweeping, contemporary lines are instantly recognizable as you approach Remerschen, a peaceful village best known for its lush nature reserves and proximity to Schengen, the symbolic heart of a borderless Europe.Step inside the light-bathed galleries and you’re met with a harmonious blend of art and architecture; every detail, from the angled windows to the expansive exhibition spaces, has been conceived to frame and elevate creativity.
