Centre of European Politics
The Kirchberg district is the largest office submarket in Luxembourg. Located in the northeast of the city with the Avenue John F Kennedy at its heart, the market’s more than 1 million sqm of office space is home to European institutions such as the European Parliament, European Commission, European Court of Justice, European Investment Bank, European Court of Auditors, and European Stability Mechanism. A European project pipeline of almost 300,000 sqm (2025-2028) reaffirms their commitment to this district.
As a centre of political power, Kirchberg attracts other notable occupiers from the business world. Globally leading companies such as BNP Paribas, Pfizer, Amazon, Deutsche Bank, KPMG, Arendt & Medernach and more are also located here. As a result, vacancy is very limited at less than 2%.
It is not all offices, however. The Luxembourg Shopping Centre / Auchan Kirchberg provides plenty of retail options, and the National Sports and Cultural Center, Philharmonie and Mudam Museum of Modern Art provide a cultural break. There is an ongoing effort to further diversify the market by increasing residential development and other services. The Kiem 2050 project, for example, is breaking ground in 2025 with new apartments expected to be available in 2028.
Accessibility is an important feature of the Kirchberg market. Located in the corner of the city, it benefits from the Luxembourg address while avoiding some of the traffic congestion. The new tram has added a convenience factor that brings the city centre closer to its doorstep. Additionally, it is located less than 10 minutes by car from Findel Airport, the Grand Duchy’s largest airport, and, as of March 2025, is also reachable by tram.
Overall, institutions needing to be close to centres of political power and international companies wanting to keep their finger on the pulse of political developments should consider the Kirchberg district for their future office.
