Saarbrucken Travel Guide

Right in the heart of the Saar-Lor-Lux region in the centre of Saarland in Germany, will bring you to the capital city of Saarbrucken. Saarbrucken literally translates to Saar bridges, which would make sense, since there are at least a dozen or so bridges here that sweep over the Saar River, although not many people are convinced that this is the origin of the name of the city as the Alte Brucke predates the name by more than 500 years.
