Turelbaach Castle

From 1964 until his death in 2007, Pol Gilson built himself Château Turebaach, stone by stone. The Castle near Mertzig in West Luxembourg is named after the stream that feeds the lake. The town clerk and musician devoted every minute of his free time to this lifelong project, often using recycled stones given to him. His widow sold the castle to the municipality, and we hope that it will be open to the public in the future as a visitor centre with unusual guest rooms (chambre d'hôtes insolites) and a restaurant.
