Esch2022, European Capital of Culture

In 2022, Esch-Alzette, the second largest city in Luxembourg, held the title of European Capital of Culture together with the 10 municipalities of the Pro-Sud and the 8 French municipalities of the “Communauté de Communes Pays Haut Val d’Alzette” (CCPHVA). Each year this label is awarded to a different city or area within the European Union.
