On Thursday 28 April 2022, Luxembourg's Minister for Tourism, Lex Delles, participated in the official presentation of the "EureWelcome" label brochure.

This label, which is awarded by the General Directorate of Tourism in collaboration with the National Centre for Handicap Info, is awarded to tourist establishments or events to recognise their efforts in terms of accessibility and hospitality. This approach is based on the concept of "Design for all", aiming to meet the needs of all visitors, including visitors with disabilities, the elderly and families with children.

During the ceremony, Minister Delles said: "The concept of tourism for all must in no way represent a niche offer, but is supposed to be established with a maximum of tourist actors. The 'EureWelcome' label plays a key role in this context, since labeled establishments undertake to be able to welcome every tourist and resident and to offer satisfactory service. It is important to me to congratulate the actors of the Luxembourg tourism sector for their inclusive approach and to encourage them to continue on this path."

In order to further promote the "Design for all" concept, the General Directorate of Tourism recently published new illustrations that emphasise the inclusion of the tourism sector.

During the "EureWelcome" label award ceremony, Minister Delles officially awarded the brochures to the following sixteen establishments that successfully met the label criteria:

  • Scout Center Badboeschelchen
  • Brasserie & Ecolodges Péitche Lauer
  • Camping's Stuff Brewery
