Rollingergrund, a young district in Luxembourg
The origins of the Rollingergrund district date back to 1223. Its development followed that of the Boch earthenware factory, established here in the 18th century. Luxembourg's Villeroy & Boch crockery is well known among lovers of fine tableware and table arts.
A rather "young" district, Rollingergrund attracts a cosmopolitan population with an immigrant background, working more specifically on Kirchberg. Located in the hollow of the valley between Luxembourg city center and Kirchberg, this district is organized along the main street, Rue de Rollingergrund.
The neighborhood has no real center. However, its proximity to amenities is its main asset.
Today, Rollingergrund is a predominantly residential area. The areas around the school and church are the busiest.
The neighborhood features a large number of single-family homes. The oldest date back to the 18th century, and, like many other Luxembourg neighborhoods, the district was mostly developed in the 1950s. There are also many newer buildings.
Several real estate projects are set to further revitalize the area.
