Canton Esch-sur-Alzette

Canton Esch-sur-Alzette occupies Luxembourg’s southern borderland, in Luxembourg. It forms part of the Minett, or “Red Rocks” country, where iron-ore deposits helped make the Grand Duchy a major steel producer. The Alzette runs through Esch-sur-Alzette, the country’s second-largest city and the canton’s urban centre. At Belval, preserved blast furnaces stand beside the University of Luxembourg’s campus, making the area’s industrial transformation tangible. The National Museum of Resistance and Human Rights in Esch-sur-Alzette adds a vital historical dimension.
