City Information
Homburg
Homburg is a town in the German state of Saarland, close to the country's border with France. Homburg offers travelers a unique attraction in the Schlossberghöhlen, an underground complex of 17th-century sand mines. Visitors can take a guided tour of the tunnels and caves to learn about the site's long history: from 250-million-year-old footprints in the red sandstone to the mines' use as air raid shelters in World War II. After your trip underground, get some fresh air on a hike to the Karlsberg Castle. The castle lies mostly in ruin now, but the forest trails in the area are regal in their own right.
