In 2022, together with 11 Pro-Sud municipalities, and 8 municipalities in France, in the Communauté de Communes Pays Haut Val d’Alzette (CCPHVA), Esch-Alzette, Luxembourg’s second largest city, will be European Capital of Culture. Each year this label is awarded to a different city or area within the European Union.
Esch2022 will share this title with Kaunas, the second largest city in Lithuania and Novi Sad, the second largest city in Serbia, which will be partner cities for Esch2022.
All throughout the year, the Minett Trail will play host to many different cultural events as part of the festivities of Esch2022
