At the heart of this newly transformed quarter of the city, which comprises the modern campus of the University of Luxembourg, you can see the imposing remnants of the iron ore industry that drove the economy of Luxembourg more than 100 years ago.

Never forget

Cultural centre "A Rousen"

Standing right on one corner of Resistance Square (also known as Brillplaz) in the heart of Esch, the Escher Theater is both a receiving and producing organisation. Each season, the theatre offers around 50 performances of theatre, dance and music – together with creative work which span all these disciplines. Here you can see productions from European theatres as well as from Luxembourg, but also work co-created with the local community. As Luxembourg stands at the crossroads of other countries, the venue asserts its cross-border and multicultural vocation through multilingual programming, primarily in French and German. Since 2018, plays for young audiences have been one of the main focuses of its programme.
