Districts of Luxembourg in the context of Diekirch (canton)

⭐ Core Definition: Districts of Luxembourg

The three districts of Luxembourg (French: district [distʁikt] ; German: Distrikt [dɪsˈtʁɪkt] ; Luxembourgish: Distrikt) were the top-level administrative divisions of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The districts were further subdivided into cantons, which still exist:

The cantons were created on 24 February 1843. In 1857, Mersch District was created from the cantons of Mersch and Redange. However, this fourth district was abolished in 1867, when the re-arrangements of 1857 were undone.

Districts of Luxembourg in the context of Cantons of Luxembourg

The 12 cantons (French: canton [kɑ̃tɔ̃] ; German: Kanton [kanˈtoːn] ; Luxembourgish: Kanton [ˈkɑnton]) of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg are subdivisions at the first level of local administrative unit (LAU-1) in the European Union's Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics for Eurostat purposes. They were subdivisions of the three districts of Luxembourg until 2015, when the district level of government was abolished. The cantons are in turn subdivided into 100 communes (i.e. municipalities).
