Holidays & Observances in Luxembourg
Luxembourg is a small Western European country located between France, Germany, and Belgium. It is a very diverse country, with many immigrants and people with ancestors from every European country. The culture is rich, but it takes most of its cues from France and Germany because of their proximity and their historical dominance over the small country. The economy of Luxembourg is one of the strongest in the world, so the people have a high standard of living. Religiously, most of them are Roman Catholic, but the religions of Luxembourg are diverse as well. Christian holidays are celebrated across the country and are very important to the Luxembourger way of life.
