Districts of Luxembourg

The three districts of Luxembourg (French: districts, German: Distrikte, Luxembourgish: Distrikter) are the top-level administrative divisions of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The districts are further subdivided into cantons:

The cantons were created on 24 February 1843.^[1] In 1857, Mersch District was created from the cantons of Mersch and Redange.^[2] However, this fourth district was abolished in 1867, when the re-arrangements of ten years previously were undone.^[3]
