Where? Avenue du Rock'n'Roll, L-4361 Esch-sur-Alzette

Le Fonds Belval - "Möllerei" building

Originally built in 1910, the Möllerei was used to store ore and coke. It was significantly altered between 1965 and 1970. It has been out of use since the last blast furnace was shut down in 1997 and has been registered in the supplementary inventory of national monuments since 2000.
The northern part of the building is used to house the university library - the Luxembourg Learning Centre - which opened in September 2018.

Pre-registration at the Visitor Centre is required. The Visitor Centre is located in the "Halle des poches" under blast furnace A.

Carefully restored by the Fonds Belval from March 2020 to February 2022, it is now freely accessible to visitors who can admire its architectural aesthetics. It is also from this building that the visit of the Blast Furnace now begins in order to follow the journey of the raw materials. The Möllerei is open every day (except Tuesdays), from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. (4 p.m. in winter), free admission.
