The Pétrusse (Luxembourgish: Péitruss, German: Petruss) is a river flowing through Luxembourg, joining the Alzette at Luxembourg City. It flows through the town of Hollerich.
Luxembourg (Luxembourgish: Lëtzebuerg, French: Luxembourg, German: Luxemburg), also known as Luxembourg City (Luxembourgish: Stad Lëtzebuerg or d'Stad, French: Ville de Luxembourg, German: Stadt Luxemburg, Luxemburg-Stadt)[pron 2], is the capital city of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (also named Luxembourg), and the country's most populous commune. Standing at the confluence of the Alzette and Pétrusse rivers in southern Luxembourg, the city lies at the heart of Western Europe, situated 213 km (132 mi) by road from Brussels, 372 km (231 mi) from Paris, and 209 km (130 mi) from Cologne. The city contains Luxembourg Castle, established by the Franks in the Early Middle Ages, around which a settlement developed.
As of January 2018, Luxembourg City had a population of 116,323, which is more than three times the population of the country's second most populous commune (Esch-sur-Alzette).
In 2011, Luxembourg was ranked as having the second highest per capita GDP in the world at $80,119 (PPP), with the city having developed into a banking and administrative centre. In the 2011 Mercer worldwide survey of 221 cities, Luxembourg was placed first for personal safety while it was ranked 19th for quality of living.
Luxembourg is one of the de facto capitals of the European Union (alongside Brussels and Strasbourg), as it is the seat of several institutions, agencies and bodies of the European Union, including the European Court of Justice, the European Court of Auditors, the Secretariat of the European Parliament, the European Investment Bank, the European Investment Fund, and the European Stability Mechanism.

Luxembourg: With Petrus Express descend to Grund
Petrus Valley separates city district Garer Quartierin. Throughout the valley there are two viaducts in the city called The Breck (Old Bridge) and Nei Breck (New Bridge). Pétrusse River (Luxembourg Péitruss , French Pétrusse) is a river flowing through Luxembourg city. It is formed by the confluence of Märelerbach and Zéissenger, and flows into the Alzette.
Petrus name comes from the Latin word Petrosa (stone), which is found along the river flow. 1933 River, however, flows through a conduit concrete. Bock promontory houses fortress of Luxembourg. This is rock and debris from the Bock casemates.
We can still see remnants of the so-called Bourbons-locks, which were built in 1728, to save the city from flooding.
The oldest part of the city, the district Grund, is in the valley carved by Petrus and is also the most picturesque
***********************************
Valea Petrusse, separă oraşul de cartierul „Garer Quartierin. De-a lungul văii se găsesc doua viaducte, numite în oraş „Al Bréck (Vechiul Pod) şi „Nei Bréck (Noul Pod). Râul Pétrusse (luxemburgheza „Péitruss, franceza Pétrusse) este un râu care curge prin orasul Luxemburg. Se formează prin confluenţa râului Märelerbach şi Zéissenger, şi se varsă în Alzette.
Numele Petrusse vine de la cuvântul latin petrosa (piatra), care se găsea de-a lungul scurgerii râului. Din 1933 râul însă se scurge printr-un canal de beton. Promontoriul Bock adăposteşte cetatea de apărare a Luxemburgului. În această stâncă se află şi rămăşiţe din cazematele Bock.
Se mai pot vedea încă rămaşite din aşa numitele Bourbons-ecluze,care au fost construite în 1728, pentru a salva oraşul de la inundaţii.
Partea cea mai veche a orașului, cartierul Grund, e în valea săpată de Petrusse și e și zona cea mai pitorească,

The Pétrusse, created by the confluence of the Cessange and the Merl rivulets, had no embankments until 1933. The defences lining the Pétrusse valley were supporting the town so they were not demolished.

A Trip To Luxembourg
A video shot in the summer of 2012 at Luxembourg, most of it from the Hop on Hop off bus. The city looked deserted, as it was Sunday and besides that, people were on holiday.
The High and Low of Luxembourg City
An isolated country and a regional center at the same time, Luxembourg City is a city of contrasts - formal yet hip, traditional yet modern, affluent yet unpretentious. I am going to explore them all, the high and low of Luxembourg City.
