Upcoming events at the Schluechthaus
An extensive pre-works programme to promote and revitalise the Schluechthaus (Old Slaughterhouse) has been launched. The aim is to test out the ideas garnered about the site's future use during the civic outreach process. Before construction work begins, a series of one-time events – including cultural, sports and intergenerational activities – will be put on at the Schluechthaus.

Getting to the SchluechthausFrom former slaughterhouse to cultural hub of tomorrow
The Schluechthaus, which belongs to the City of Luxembourg, covers an area of around 2.5 ha, including a number of green spaces. Situated in Hollerich near major thoroughfares, several schools and the future Porte de Hollerich eco-district, the Schluechthaus occupies a superb location in southern Luxembourg City.
After the slaughterhouse was closed in 1997, the buildings on this site were used for a few years to accommodate the City of Luxembourg's Service Sports (Sports Department), a skatepark and several storage areas.

A host of activities and installations are planned to get you excited about the initiatives being held throughout the year.
Repair Café at Schluechthaus
The City of Luxembourg and "Repair Café Lëtzebuerg" host the "Repair Café at Schluechthaus" – an event that is part of the City's wider policy on combating climate change. Volunteers with the knowledge and skills to repair damaged or broken items (clothes, small electrical appliances, bikes, toys, small items of furniture, etc.) will be on site to help visitors give their treasured possessions a new lease on life.
Schluechthaus Sessions
As part of its music programming, the Schluechthaus is launching "Schluechthaus Sessions" – a concert series that spotlights underground styles such as hip-hop, rap, metal and hardcore. With its industrial, raw character, the Schluechthaus is the perfect venue for these genres as it offers an immersive experience in a setting that breathes the energy and authenticity of underground scenes.
