The City of Luxembourg (VdL) has announced it will host an open day at the Pfaffenthal community garden on Saturday 28 June 2025.
The event, taking place from 15:00 to 18:00, will be held in the presence of member gardeners and municipal staff involved in the project. It will mark the end of the LUGA Garden Week and offer gardening enthusiasts the opportunity to learn more about the initiative’s environmentally responsible approach to plant cultivation, as well as its function as both a growing space and a place for community exchange, according to VdL.
The programme will include a guided tour of the community garden with opportunities to speak with member gardeners, tastings of dishes prepared using produce grown on site and activities for children.
The garden is located on Rue Mohrfels (opposite #37) and can be reached via AVL bus lines 23 and 26 (Théiwesbuer stop). Entry is free and no registration is required.
A community garden (distinct from allotment or municipal gardens) is cultivated and managed by a group of residents from the same neighbourhood, based exclusively on ecological principles - without pesticides, chemical fertilisers or genetically modified organisms. VdL supports these efforts by offering regular ecological gardening training in collaboration with agronomists and biologists from CIGL Esch.
