Contern (Luxembourgish: Conter [ˈkontɐ] ⓘ) is a commune and town in southern Luxembourg. It is located east of Luxembourg City.[1] As of 2024 the commune has a population of 4,513 whereas the town itself, which lies in the south-west of the commune, has a population of 1,876.[2][3]

The main towns are Contern, Moutfort, Oetrange and Medingen and Milbech. Additionally the commune contains the Lieu-dits of Bricherhaff, Brichermillen, Kréintgeshaff, Kackerterhaff, Marxeknupp and Pleitrange.[4][1] The commune also contains the industrial zones of Chaux de Contern, and Rosswenkel, as well as the activity zone of Weiergewan.

The town dates back to around the 9th century and was initially economically focussed on farming. Having gone through various changes in governance over the centuries, the commune as it exists today was formed around the 19th century. In recent years Contern has industrialised; however, it mainly functions as a commuter town into Luxembourg City, as do most of the other settlements in the commune. As a result Contern boasts the 10th highest median average salary out of all 102 communes in Luxembourg as of 2022.[5]

History

[edit]

The Romans settled Luxembourg in the 1st Century BC, it has been speculated whether or not the settlement of Contern was founded by them or even previously however there it hasn't been proven despite the presence of remnants of Roman infrastructure within the boundaries of the modern day commune. This includes a crossing over the Trudlerbaach which exists as a part of the Roman road which once linked Luxembourg and Dalheim, remnants of the road pass through the farmstead of Faerschthaff.[6] The name Contern first appeared in a charter in 879/880/903/904 AD, although its first official listing was in 1128 and it is almost certain Contern dated back to the Celtic Era. In the 14th century it was recorded in writing as Guntrein.[7] Contern in the 13th century got a lot of influence from Christianity and Chivalry. At this time Contern became a parish and has its church built.

Contern was formed as a parish in 1621. Later in 1684, neighbouring Oetrange also became a parish followed by Moutfort in 1707. At the time, the parish of Contern had no Lieu-dits although Oetrange was home to the settlement of Kackerterhaff. Moutfort was home to the settlements of Medingen and Millbech as well as the Moulin the Millbech and the farmstead of Pleitrange.[8][9] By 1796 Contern was founded as an Arrondissement, which was home to several localities:

Contern remained an Arrondissement officially up until 1912 but prior to it being dissolved, the modern day commune was formed. The exact time period of its formation is unknown but the earliest Census data which is applicable to Contern with its current boundaries dates back to 1821 and the oldest archived mention of Contern dates back to 1842 with a mention in a newspaper.[10][11]

By 1890 most of the former Arrondissements of Contern were incorporated as Lieu-dits and census subdivisions.

From 1945 onwards, Contern's municipal structure was made up of Contern, Oetrange, Moutfort and Medingen. The parish of Oetrange was absorbed into the parish of Moutfort in 1946, shortly after in 1948, the parishes of Contern and Moutfort were effectively dissolved.[8][9]

Archaeology

[edit]

Although no prominent archaeological sites or artifacts date back to the Celtic times, plenty has been left over since the Romans including some housing and remnants of an aqueduct.[13] The most prominent thing from the Romans however is the Gallo-Roman villa, it stood on the current site of the town and there are still remains of it to this day.[14]

Etymology

[edit]

Following World War II, the Luxembourgers had strong distaste for their former German overseers. This was why almost every place in the country was renamed from its original Luxembourgish name of German origin, to that of French origin without changing too much. Contern's name would have stayed Conter if it weren't for the French pronunciation of "er" being far too strong, thus an "n" was added on the end. It could have been possible to have followed what places like Hesperange did, but in the end it stuck to the name Contern. In the modern era, to encourage more Luxembougish in the commune, many documents and signs use "Conter" instead of Contern.

Geography

[edit]
The Kackeschbaach makes up a part of the border between Contern and Schuttrange

The Commune of Contern is located within the Canton of Luxembourg itself within Luxembourg District.

Boundaries

[edit]

Contern is bordered by the communes of Sandweiler and Schuttrange to the North, Lenningen and Bous-Waldbredimus to the east, Dalheim to the south, Weiler-la-Tour to the southwest and Hesperange to the west. The borders of Contern aren't largely defined by any major roads of rivers. There are exceptions to this however. Betaeen Eitermillen and the border with Sandweiler, the Kackeshbaach marks as the border between Contern and Schuttrange. Between Syren and Brichemillen the Syre marks the border with Weiler-La-Tour and east of the Contern-Sandweiler industrial zone, the Réimeschbaach marks the border with Hesperange.[1][15]

Topography

[edit]
Typical topography of Contern containing rolling hills. Taken from the east of Oetrange

Contern covers an area of 20.55 square kilometres, making it, As of 2022[needs update] the 54th largest commune in Luxembourg out of 102.[16] It had a population of 4374, the 44th highest out of 102 communes as of 2023 giving it a population density of 210 people per square kilometre, 43rd highest in Luxembourg. The population has since risen to 4513.

Contern lies within the Guttland region of Luxembourg and covers part of both the Luxembourg Plateau and Moselle Valley sub-regions.[17] The contrast between the 2 sub regions gives Contern a varying topography. From the rolling hills which the town itself sits on in the south, north and west of the commune compared to the sharp sandstone cliffs that make up the east of the commune around Medingen.

Contern is largely centres around the Syre river, which nearly perfectly bisects the commune, and to a lesser extent, it’s tributaries. The Syre flows North-East from Syren in the commune of Weiler-la-tour flowing until the border with Schuttrange halfway between Oetrange and Schrassig. Whilst flowing through the commune, it directly bisects both Moutfort and Oetrange and the lieu-dits of Bricherhaff and Brichermillen. There is one tributary of the syre which directly hosts a settlement atop it,the Kackeschbaach which Eitermillen is atop. The remaining settlements are located atop hills including Contern itself.[1]

Climate

[edit]

The nearest place to survey the climate is in Luxembourg City however temperatures likely differ slightly due to the urban heat island effect present in Luxembourg City which isn't felt to the same extent in Contern. Contern has an oceanic climate (Cfb), with moderate precipitation, cold to cool winters and warm summers. It is cloudy about two-thirds of the year.

Rivers and streams

[edit]

Contern lies exclusively within the Rhine and Moselle basins. The vast majority of Contern’s territory flows into the Moselle through the Syre however a small portion in the northwest of the commune flows into the Alzette and the Sauer before reaching the Moselle. The Syre itself passes though the commune and is a defining feature of the landscape. It flows southwest to north east however doesn’t pass near the centre of the commune. Instead initially running across the south before turning and running up north. The central and eastern areas of the commune are home to tributaries of the Alzette.

Schleederbaach

[edit]

The Schleederbaach, sometimes referred to as the Millebaach, is a brook which flows from the Contern-Sandweiler industrial estate to just west of Moutfort where it meets the syre. Historically the course of the Schleederbaach was different but its course was changed by the construction of the industrial zone.[24][25]

Forests

[edit]

Contern has 800 hectares of forests within its borders taking up around 37% of its land area.[26]

Demographics

[edit]

As of 1 January 2023, the commune has a population of 4,374 inhabitants. Around 70% of the population are aged 15–65 and an estimated third of the commune's population consists of non-Luxembourgers, which is considerably higher than the national average. The town of Contern itself has a population of 1,876 as of 2024.[3]

Industrial zones

Contern consists of 2 separate industrial zones separated from each other. Although they are officially separate, they're often seen locally as one entity, even on road signs. The area where Sandweiler-Contern railway station is located is home to a lot of commercial infrastructure such as the only full-fledged supermarket in the commune, a trampoline park and the commune's only gas station. A few restaurants and eateries are also located there to serve the local workers. The area is home to more than 110 companies and over 5000 jobs and is quickly growing and receiving new developments.[44][13]


Transportation

[edit]
The E29 running through the commune just North of Eitermillen

Road

[edit]

Contern is well connected to the road network and links to Luxembourg City however the only dual carriageway and officially designated Trunk Road in the commune is the E29.[45] There are plans in the next 5–10 years to build a new motorway exit on the Luxembourg Ring to serve Contern and Itzig but that hasn't been built yet.[46]

Contern is involved with websites that provide traffic info.[47][48]

The first road infrastructure constructed within the boundaries of the modern day commune was also the oldest known instance of any infrastructure in the commune in the form of the Roman road from Luxembourg to Dalheim including a crossing over the Trudlerbaach. Parts of this road including the river crossing still remain in the locality of op der Syrener-Heed.[49]

Bus

[edit]

Contern is served by many different bus routes as is many of the other towns within the commune.[50][51]

Rail

1946-prensent Société Nationale des Chemins de Fer Luxembourgeois Luxembourgish Government

The Commune of Contern is served by CFL Line 30, there are 2 stations inside the commune, Oetrange and Sandweiler-Contern. The track also passes through Moutfort and Milbech however there are no stations to serve the area. Typically Oetrange is served by 2 regional trains an hour to Luxembourg westbound and one to Wittlich and one to Wasserbillig eastbound. Sandweiler-Contern also sees an hourly semi-fast service from Luxembourg to Trier/Koblenz. In addition to line 30 there is a junction in Oetrange to CFL Line 4 which runs through Moutfort and out of the commune towards Fentange and Berchem on CFL Line 60. This line is a freight line used by trains to bypass Luxembourg city centre. It seese no regular passenger service unless the line between Luxembourg and Oetrange is closed for engineering works.[53][54]

 Rail transport initially reached the commune in 1861 when what would become CFL Line 30 was built by Guillaume-Luxembourg. Both stations in the commune today were opened then.[55][56]

Air

[edit]

The nearest airport to Contern is Luxembourg Airport, located a few miles north of the commune.[57]

Municipality and governance

[edit]

Contern is a commune which has a local government and therefore a mayor and council, elections are held every 6 years alongside all 99 other Luxembourgish Communes.[58] The Mayor is currently Marion Zovilé-Braquet.[59]

Elections

[edit]

Electoral system

[edit]

As Contern has a population between 3000 and 5999 it elects a total of 11 councillors, including 2 Aldermen and the mayor. Additionally as a result of having a population over 3000, municipal elections are held using proportional representation. Participation is mandatory for Luxembourgish citizens and unlike in general elections, non-Luxembourgish European Union Citizens are permitted to vote granted they have valid residency.[60]

The Mayor is elected and is put in charge of municipal staff, administration, infrastructure, security, emergency services, communications, relations with other communes, schools and sport. In addition they're also in charge of the "le college Echevinal" and of the Municipal Council.[59]

The college Echevinal consists of the Mayor and their 2 advisors who are all put in charge of different things. The 1st alderman is put in charge of Mobility, Weather, Fairtrade etc.. The 2nd alderman is put in charge of the environment, finances, agriculture, etc...[61][62]

The Municipal Council consists of 11 elected members including the 2 aldermen, the mayor and 8 councilors, they are the legislators of the municipality. Meetings happen roughly every 3 months, take place in the town hall and are public unless otherwise stated.[63]

Elections in Contern occur on 3 levels. The Municipal elections are held for the local government exclusively within Contern however Contern also acts as an electoral ward for national legislative elections and for elections for the European Parliament.

Services

[edit]
The school in Oetrange

Education

[edit]

The commune owns and runs a school in the southwest of the town. The commune is delegated with the task of ensuring that Government Mandated Education is enforced, the education budget is controlled, and that the school buses linking the rest of the commune with the school are operational. Many local residents, particularly of secondary school, tend to have their education outside the commune.[80][81] There's also a school in Oetrange.

Financial

[edit]

The Communal Revenue department manages Contern's taxation, dept and accounting.

Emergency services

[edit]

Contern is not home to any Hospitals, Medical Clinics, Police Stations or Fire Stations and must rely on neighbouring communes for such services.[82]

Waste collection

[edit]
Zone industrial « Op Dem keller » where the dump is located
Zone industrial « Op Dem keller » where the dump is located

Waste Collection is managed and run by the commune of Contern. There is a simple system of when garbage trucks come, what they pick up each day, and how much it all costs. The dump is located in the Op Dem Keller industrial zone in Munsbach and is shared with the commune of Shuttrange.[83]

Urban planning

[edit]

Contern's urban planning is run by its urban planning department. They control and manage building permits and requests. There's a 2 tier system for any form of construction or Landscaping. There's the minor intervention for small construction projects such as minor landscaping, street and sidewalk construction and the building of wells and outdoor facilities. Then there's the major interventions for construction or extension of new housing or office space, or modifications to the structure or load-bearings of existing infrastructure.[84]

Other

[edit]

The commune also offers services for reception, revenue, technical and communications.[85]

Social component

[edit]

Contern is in partnership with the communes in Schuttrange and Weiler-La-Tour with whom they share a social office in Moutfort.[86]

Contern endeavours to get the entire population to speak a large variety of languages. Many Local Children speak Luxembourgish, French, German and even English. The commune wishes to spread the speaking of all these languages to everyone in their boundaries, assisted heavily by their Luxembourgish Courses.[87]

Luxembourgish has been on the rise recently, with many documents being posted in Luxembourgish, sometimes exclusively, the commune of Contern is encouraging learning of the national language through courses set up exclusively by them. Courses occur yearly and are encouraged due to the large immigrant population of the commune.[88]

Municipality

[edit]

The commune of Contern operates many of the services of its designated area.[89] The commune runs multiple buildings such as the Town Hall, Municipal Workshop, Social office, etc.[90] It also issues many public documents available online and job applications to work for the commune directly are possible, even for people as young as 16.[91][92] All new regulations made the by the commune are also available in PDF form online.[93] The human resources department service is responsible for managing Municipal jobs, this includes jobs for students aged 16 and over during the summer.[94] The commune also offers the "cost of living allowance." It comes from the FNS and can be applied for so long as the decision is enclosed with the SNSF agreement. Like many other things it has a PDF to accompany with, which is supposed to be filled in.[95] There's also a separate National Fund for Low income citizens, the total sum is determined mostly by their household.[96]

WIFI4EU

[edit]

Contern has worked with the European Commission to bring publicly available WI-FI to certain areas of the commune. These include both the site of the former school and parts of the current one, Prince Charles Park in Oetrange, the park in Moutfort and the Cultural Centre in Medingen. These by no coincidence, are all located within the 4 main settlements in Contern. There are potentially more areas which meet the criteria set by the European Commission to warrant a new hotspot but none are planned for the moment. WIFI4EU is by no means unique to Contern.[97]

Coat of arms

[edit]
The Coat of Arms

Description

[edit]

The Contern Coat of arms is "Argent a fess wavy Gules charged with three triangles also wavy Or, said fess accompanied in chief by a cross anchored Gules, at the base of a shell Sable."[98]

The commune of Contern received its coat of arms on 26 July 1982. These are coats of arms in the shape of a shield divided into three parts, one for each village of the municipality.

  • The upper part shows a cross derived from the coat of arms of the lords of Larochette who owned Contern from 1534 to 1731.
  • The bars come from the coat of arms of the Grandpré family, lords of Roussy, who were the owners of the villages of Moutfort, Medingen and Pleitrange. The bars undulate to represent the River Syre which runs through the town.
  • The lower part shows a shell derived from the coat of arms of the Metternich family to which Oetrange belonged.[98]

Usage

[edit]

The Contern Coat of arms is used all over the commune, on the flag, outside official buildings, even on the wheelie bins. Its distinctive looks and colour make it easy to spot.

Shopping

[edit]

Contern is home to a large number of small businesses which local residents can do their shopping at. This is not only restricted to settlements as the industrial zone is home to the only Big Box Store in the commune. The other stores consist of but are not limited to grocery stores, drink shops and bakeries. Contern also has a variety of hair salons and pharmacies. Most of these are concentrated around Moutfort due to the E29 main road slicing the town in twain. The commune is full of mixed use development hence why shops although occasionally found in dedicated shopping districts, are still just as often in residential areas.[99]

Culture, sport and leisure

[edit]

There are many cultural centres in Contern all of which have their own events. They are Chapel Street in Medingen, Moutfort Cultural and Sports Centre, Oetrange Cultural Centre, and "An Henks" Cultural Centre in Contern.[100] There are a total 7 different monuments in Contern, dotted across the various towns and serving different purposes. There are 3 different war memorials, one it Contern itself, one it Oetrange and one in Moutfort. In Moutfort there is another monument to the liberators in Luxembourg, and in Oetrange there is a white bridge named Liberation Bridge. There are 2 smaller monuments, one in the industrial zone, and one more in Moutfort.[101]

The Comic Strip Festival is a festival that was started by a man named Daniel Grun and has been going since 1994. It was the first of its kind in the country although that no longer stays true to this day.[102] It is known as BD Contern.[103]

Appelfest is an annual Autumn festival that happens in Contern, near the Gemeng. It is very well known amongst the locals and every year before happening has banners placed on the lampposts on the streets entering the town and has road signs pointing to it to inform everyone when it is happening.

End of Winter Bonfire 2022
Close up of the Bonfire

Every year in March at a relatively random date, in the south-west of Contern near Hoehenhof on a small trail, a large bonfire is made and the local residents are invited to a gathering. This is a historic tradition to "burn away the winter" and say hello to spring. It has been going before mass adoption of the Christian Calendar hence does not take place the same day every year. In 2022 it took place on 5 March.

There are many cultural events which happen in Contern.[104] For younger people there are a number of small play areas dotted around the commune.[105][106] There is also the Yearly Christmas March, which will take place on 4–5 December in 2022.

There are many local festivals and events that happen in Contern, including Integration Week, Day of Sporting and Cultural Merit, Environment Week, Commemoration Day and many more.[107]

Autopedestrians is a series of hiking/biking paths which are mapped out by the commune to increase use and decrease risk. There are 7 in total, all of which are clearly marked and labelled, with maps available online.[108] Some of them leave the commune at times, while most only go between towns in Contern.[109][110]

Contern has many cycle paths that are part of Regional or National collaboration. There are also many unmarked gravel or paved paths which are mostly dedicated to cyclists all across the commune. This includes many paths linking hamlets such as Faerschthaff so that their tractors can access the farm more easily. Motor vehicles excluding tractors are banned from all these paths, but they are open to cyclists.[111]

There are a number of basketball courts and football fields within and just outside the commune. There is also a children's Football Club with a full size playing field located at Moutfort. It is the "Union Sportif Moutfort-Medingen" or USMM for short, set up in 1937. It attracts people not just from Contern but also the neighbouring communes.[112]

Contern is also home to many public courts for Multisports and Petanque.[113][114] The nearest swimming pool is regional, outside of the commune entirely in Nideranven.[115]
