The interior is decorated with wonderful stained glass windows, massive pillars and a beautiful Baroque organ in the back of the cathedral. The crypt of the Notre-Dame with twelve columns supporting the church above, contains the burial vaults of the Bishops and the vault of the grand-ducal family.
