AnimalECH I 18.12.2025 – 23.08.2026

The animalECH exhibition offers you the opportunity to critically examine your personal relationship with non-human animals.

How do I position myself in relation to animals? How do animals position themselves in relation to me?

The relationship between humans and non-human animals is constantly evolving. At different times and in different cultural spaces, it has been and continues to be shaped by different ethical, moral and legal concepts. Our personal relationship with non-human animals also evolves over the course of our lives. Individual experiences play an equally important role as new scientific discoveries and social changes.

About Grund district

Luxembourg’s unforgettable fairy tale district

With historical references dating back to the 14th century, this picturesque and idyllic district is one of Luxembourg’s oldest. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1994, it is located in the lower part of the city right in the heart of the old fortress, which was built over nine centuries, only to be demolished in 1867 as part of the Treaty of London. Described by many as “a village within a city”, the Grund has a much calmer and quieter feeling than the nearby city centre, which can be easily accessed on foot or by public lift. Its location, deep in a valley and surrounded by the beautiful Alzette River, gives it a unique and memorable character.
