Through a series of thoughtfully crafted panels, combining text, period photos and old posters provided by the Lëtzebuerger Rousefrënn association, the exhibition traces the history of the famous rose-growing families that took up residence in Limpertsberg in the 19^th century. At the time, the district was already well known for flower cultivation, and especially roses, which earned Luxembourg an enviable reputation extending far beyond the Grand Duchy's borders. The exhibition pays tribute to this golden age of flowers, and highlights this extraordinary heritage, which continues to thrive today. The second part of the exhibition features creations by students in the Arts section – Section E – of the Lycée de Garçons de Luxembourg. In producing their works, the final-year students in the Arts section explored the theme of sustainability, envisioning "La Ville en Rose – plus verte, plus durable" ("A Greener, More Sustainable City of Roses").

Spread across five of Luxembourg's most iconic sites – namely the Alzette Valley, the Edouard André Municipal Park, the Pétrusse Valley, Kirchberg and the city of Ettelbruck in the north of the country – this temporary exhibition offers visitors a sensory trail combining nature, culture and urban design.

Largely free of charge, this six-month exhibition offers a rich programme of activities, exchanges and experimental projects centred on the major challenges facing the cities of tomorrow.

In addition to photographs produced specially for "ons stad" by several contemporary photographers, this edition features a selection of documents and historical photographs from the collections housed at the Luxembourg City Photothèque and the Luxembourg City Archives, accompanied by our authors' insightful contributions.

Eligibility conditions

• To be eligible, you must be aged 65 or over. 
• For couples: the younger spouse must be 60 or over, and the other spouse must be at least 65.

The Mäertchen will be open every day from 11:00 to 22:00.

With information stands, demonstrations, workshops, singing and dance performances, meetings, seminars, dinners in the dark, guided tours and more, this rich and varied programme will give you the opportunity to learn more about the daily lives of people with special needs. Through this event, which has proved enormously successful in the past, the City and its partners seek to raise awareness among the general public, foster dialogue, and promote a greater sense of community based on mutual understanding.

The aim of this initiative is to raise public awareness about the ecological potential of covering facades in greenery, and to promote the use of the technique. Green facades contribute greatly to urban biodiversity: they provide essential habitats for birds and for insects such as bees and butterflies, enhance the local microclimate, reduce air pollution and improve quality of life. In addition, they enhance the attractiveness of the urban environment, whilst also helping reduce the buildings' energy consumption.

Against this backdrop, two workshops will be run:

• Saturday, 31 May 2025, 10:00–12:00
  Where: Theoretical session dispensed at the LUGA Lab; practical session takes place at 7, rue Mohrfels
  Language: Luxembourgish (interpreting into French available)

• Sunday, 21 September 2025, 10:00–12:00
  Where: Theoretical session dispensed at the Oekozenter Pafendall; practical section takes places at 5, rue Mohrfels
  Language: English

These free workshops, each of which caters to a maximum of 30 people, are designed to provide concrete advice on how to choose native climbing plants, how to maintain the green facades, and raise awareness about the benefits of greening for the urban environment. At the end of each session, participants can take home a free plant, provided by the City.

Look 360 Panorama

Place de la Constitution will also host the "Look 360 Panorama", a brand-new mobile tower offering impressive 71-meter-high panoramic views of the capital, from Saturday, 10 May to Sunday 15 June 2025.
