The three districts of Luxembourg are the top-level administrative divisions of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The districts are further subdivided into cantons:
- Diekirch District
- Grevenmacher District
- Grevenmacher
- Echternach
- Remich
- Luxembourg District
- Luxembourg
- Capellen
- Esch-sur-Alzette
- Mersch
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]
