Historical aspect:
In Esch-sur-Sûre, the surrounding wall was not destroyed, because houses were leaning against it and some still are.
With the appearance of gunpowder in the 15th century, it was necessary to adapt the defensive constructions. Thus, the whole village is surrounded by a 450 m long and 1.5 m wide wall with two defensive towers. The round watchtower is also fortified.
In 1902, the Egyptian Martin Riano d'Hutzt bought the castle and hired the architect Charles Arendt to restore it, renovations that stopped in 1907. In the 1980s, the National Sites and Monuments Department launched archaeological excavations. In 2005, the Luxembourg State became the owner of the site, restarted the restoration work, and the castle became a national monument in 2006.

The house is in a state where major renovation works are still to be expected, while respecting the instructions of the Sites & Monuments to carry out a conforming renovation to keep the respect towards the old historical walls.
