Architecture

Esch is renowned for the striking architecture of its town houses, most of which were built at the beginning of the 20th century when industrial development was at its height. In the city centre there are buildings in different styles, from Historicism to Art Nouveau and Art Deco, together with two fine squares and unique monuments to enjoy. Outside the city centre, in the new district of Belval, you will find eye-catching, awe-inspiring industrial buildings and monuments designed by renowned international architects who have repurposed the former plants into modern architecture. Whether you love old buildings or prefer more futuristic ones, Esch has them all!
