About the confession booth.
The wooden booths are nicely decorated (in a gothic style) with detailed religous and nature scenes. The booths are all linked and thus a quite long piece of "art". In total are 6 confession booths and in between the confession booths are benches. At the time of my visit, all booths were empty. I tried finding more information about the confession booths online, but unfortunately, no luck
About the Notre Dame Cathedral:
"Notre-Dame Cathedral is the Roman Catholic Cathedral of Luxembourg City, in southern Luxembourg. It was originally a Jesuit church, and its cornerstone was laid in 1613. It is the only cathedral in Luxembourg.
The church is a noteworthy example of late gothic architecture; however, it also has many Renaissance elements and adornments. At the end of the 18th century, the church received the miraculous image of Our Lady of Consolation (Latin: Sancta Maria Consolatricis Afflictorum), the patron saint of both the city and the nation.
Fifty years later, the church was consecrated as the Church of Our Lady and in 1870, it was elevated by Pope Pius IX to the Cathedral of Notre-Dame."
