Faerschthaff

Faerschthaff (Luxembourgish: Färschthaff) is a small Farmstead and Hamlet in Contern, just south-east of Luxembourg city in Luxembourg. It is located atop the Trudlerbaach River and is within said river's valley.[1][2] The Farmstead consists of 3 buildings, 2 farming buildings with a small gravel path linking them to the road and a house directly on the road. The Road itself is closed to vehicles other than tractors and the local residents and visitors of the house. Just East of the town there's a road junction which leads to another road leads towards the main road to Itzig. The Street which runs through Faershcthaff, rue de pres runs east towards Contern itself across a bridge over the Trudlerbaach and west where it becomes a gravel path after crossing the Contern/Weiler-La-Tour border. It then runs following the Trudlerbaach to Trudelmillen and beyond all the way to its mouth at Rue D'Altzingen in Syren.[3] A school trip from the Sport Lycée of Luxembourg went to Faerschthaff.[4]

Farming

The Farming buildings are filled with hay bales and are used as a feeding ground for cows, which are often seen in the surrounding fields. The same farmers own the fields as the buildings. The cows are used for milk only and are sold nearby in Contern itself jointly with Heederhaff Farm's produce.[5][6]
