Stadtbredimus Castle, located on the banks of the Moselle in the village of Stadtbredimus in south-eastern Luxembourg, has a history going back to the 13th century when a fortified castle stood on the site. In 1724, today's castle was built on the ruins of the old fort and, after some questionable restoration work, was bought by the la Fontaine family in 1802. It was here that Luxembourg's national poet, Edmond de la Fontaine, better known as Dicks, lived from 1858 to 1881. The castle is now the headquarters of the Domaines Vinsmoselle wine cooperative.

Das malerische Dorf Stadtbredimus ist bekannt durch sein Schloss, welches erstmals in einer Urkunde aus dem Jahre 1607 erwähnt und nach mehreren Zerstörungen, die vom alten Schloss nur einige Reste übrig ließen, im Jahre 1724 neu errichtet wurde. In dem Jahre 1802 ging das Schloss in den Besitz der Familie de la Fontaine und der luxemburgische Nationaldichter, dessen Pseudonym Dicks war, hatte dort seinen Wohnsitz. Heute dient es als Sitz der Genossenschaftsgesellschaft »Vinsmoselle« und der Cunibert-Weinbruderschaft, ebenfalls beherbergt es auch die »Waisstuff« und das Restaurant »La Tourelle«. An der Moselschleuse ist ein Denkmal errichtet wurden, welches an die frühere römische Brücke zwischen Stadtbredimus und Palzem erinnern soll, welche bei Arbeiten zur Kanalisierung der Mosel im Jahre 1962 entdeckt wurde. https://mosel-reisefuehrer.de/
