Vianden (Luxembourgish: Veianen) is a commune with city status in the Oesling, north-eastern Luxembourg, with over 1,800 inhabitants. It is the capital of the canton of Vianden, which is part of the district of Diekirch. Vianden lies on the Our river, near the border between Luxembourg and Germany.
As of 2013, the town of Vianden, which lies in the east of the commune, has a population of 1,811. It is known for its impressive castle and beautiful location in the Our valley.
The origins of Vianden date back to the Gallo-Roman age when there was a castellum on the site of the present castle. The original name of Vianden was Viennensis. The first historical reference to Vianden was in 698 when there is a record of a gift in the form of a vineyard in Monte Viennense made by Saint Irmina to the Abbey of Echternach. Vianden possesses one of the oldest charters in Europe, granted in 1308 by Philip II, count of Vianden, from whom the family of Nassau-Vianden sprang, and who was consequently the ancestor of William of Orange.
Geschiedenis Reeds in de Romeinse tijd was Vianden een castellum. Later werd Vianden de zetel van de graven van Vianden, die troonden in de burcht hoog boven het stadje. Vianden kreeg in de 11e eeuw stadsrechten naar het model van Trier. In 1417 kwam het Graafschap Vianden door vererving in handen van Engelbrecht I van Nassau, die daarmee Graaf van Vianden werd. Deze titel ging in 1890 over op de Walramse Linie van het Huis Nassau. Het hoofd van het Huis Oranje-Nassau (de Koning der Nederlanden) voert nog steeds de adellijke titel Graaf/Gravin van Vianden. In 1815 kwam een groot deel van het Graafschap Vianden bij Pruisen. Het overblijvende deel werd opgedeeld in een aantal kantons. Dat is de reden waarom het kanton Vianden tegenwoordig het kleinste kanton van Luxemburg is. Bezienswaardig...
The town of Vianden lies on the Our river, near the border between Luxembourg and Germany. It is known for its impressive castle and beautiful location in the Our valley. Many people visit Vianden to wander through its hilly, historic streets or as a centre for walking, camping or cycling in the north of Luxembourg. During the summer months, a chairlift operates from the banks of the river in the lower part of the town taking you high above the castle with magnificent views over the landscape. Vianden is also remembered as the last place in Luxembourg to be freed from the Germans in World War II in February 1945 when the Americans completed Luxembourg's liberation. September 9, 2010

Beeindruckend ist die Baustelle der Erweiterung für die 11. Maschine im Pumpspeicherwerk Vianden, Luxemburg. Diese besichtigte die BWK-Bezirksgruppe Darmstadt Im Rahmen der Exkursion 2012. Die Kraftwerksankage liegt im Berginneren. Mit dem neuem Generator wird das Kraftwerk eine Leistung von 1300 MW haben, so viel wie ein mittleres Atomkraftwerk. Some Ingenieurs of Darmstadt, Germany, visited the pumped storage hydro power station in Vianden, Luxembourg, which is one of the largest in Europe.
The recently restored castle of Vianden is set spectactularly on the rocks above the town. It has become a museum. The castle was built between the 11th and 14th centuries and became the seat of the counts of Vianden. It was further developed until the 18th century but with the departure of the Counts of Luxembourg to the Netherlands combined with the effects of fire and an earthquake, it slowly deteriorated. The final blow came in 1820 when William I of the Netherlands sold it to a local merchant who in turn sold off its contents and masonry piecemeal, reducing it to a ruin. There were several attempts at restoration but these were hampered by problems of ownership. Not until 1977, when Grand Duke Jean ceded the castle to the State, was it possible to undertake large-scale work, mos...

I'm a little teapot short and stout
Smash me apart and fucking spill me out
I'm a piece of shit
I'm a fucking mess
I'm a little wounded bird
I fell out of my nest
I've been busy tearing out my motherfucking mind
Don't wanna kill myself
Want to rip out my fucking eyes
To all the noises that live here
And the answers in my brain
To all the TV cameras
And the innocence they play
To the fucking cults
To the pop star teens
To the crooked politicians and the ones who believe
I've been busy tearing out my motherfucking mind
Don't wanna hurt myself
Want to rip out my fucking eyes
No other motherfucker gonna take me down now
When I am perfectly capable of destroying myself
Don't you fucking look at me
Your pity driven stare
I'm fucking flesh and blood
I'm just a man without a care
There's nothing to see here
So pass the fuck on by
You're so obsessed with money
But you can't take it when you die
'Cause in the end we're all the same
You're nothing better than me
We all get thrown into a hole
Six feet deep
I've been busy tearing out my motherfucking mind
Don't wanna shoot myself
Want to rip out my fucking eyes
No other motherfucker gonna take me down now
When I am perfectly capable of destroying myself
My eyes are sore
From all the shit I can't ignore
I feel I'm losing my vision
Don't let me hurt myself anymore
'Cause when I'm gone, the world is dead
I am God, you are shit
I am God, the world is dead
