Send Flowers to Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg

Esch-sur-Alzette is the second city of Luxembourg and the capital of the Minett, the Land of the Red Rocks in the south, named after the iron ore that made the country rich. Steel built Esch, and it drew workers first from Italy and later from Portugal, whose descendants give the town its open, Mediterranean-tinged character. People with family here often live in Portugal, Italy, France or Cape Verde, and flowers are how many of them stay present at birthdays and births.

The centre is organised around the Rue de l'Alzette, the longest shopping street in the country, and the town hall square. To the west, the former steelworks of Belval have become a new district where preserved blast furnaces stand next to the main campus of the University of Luxembourg, the Rockhal concert venue and modern apartment blocks. Students and researchers there usually need the building and apartment number on the order. Older neighbourhoods such as Brill, Lallange and Raemerich are mostly terraced houses. The Centre Hospitalier Emile Mayrisch serves the whole south.

Flower delivery in Esch-sur-Alzette is next-day, Monday to Saturday, if you order before midnight Luxembourg time. Sundays and public holidays are not delivery days. Cards in French or Portuguese are read as easily as Luxembourgish.
