About Eich district
One of the largest municipalities
It’s hard to believe today that Luxembourg City’s second smallest district was once one of the country’s largest municipalities in terms of area.
Before the municipality was absorbed by Luxembourg City in 1920, Eich was actually twice the size of the capital. In the centuries following the French Revolution, a large municipality sprang up around a farm called “Eich”, from which the municipality takes its name. Up until 1920, the municipality of Eich encompassed the areas covered by today’s districts of Beggen, Weimerskirch, Dommeldingen, Rollingergrund, Mühlenbach and Neudorf-Weimershof. In 1920, these six municipal areas merged with Luxembourg City and became districts of the capital in their own right.
The resulting loss of territory left the new district of Eich with an area of just 63 hectares, and with a population today of just under 3,000, this previously large municipality is now a rather small district.
