The LEADER bureau Miselerland is located in Grevenmacher within the building of the Luxembourg Winegrowers' Association, alongside with the management of the Upper Moselle Valley development concept and the office of the Terroir Moselle association.
In 2003, the Luxembourg Moselle and its surrounding communities have become a LEADER region and have since implemented numerous innovative projects: oenotourism, ‘integration sofa’, Terroir Moselle, energy cooperative, World City, Moselle music festival, biomass study and many more.
The LEADER region Miselerland currently includes twelve municipalities from the cantons of Grevenmacher and Remich: Betzdorf, Bous-Waldbredimus, Flaxweiler, Grevenmacher, Lenningen, Manternach, Mertert, Bad Mondorf, Remich, Schengen, Stadtbredimus and Wormeldingen.
The Miselerland region is unique for the Grand Duchy in many ways: it borders the largest river (the Moselle), it is the only wine-growing region (Moselle luxembourgeoise), it has the lowest point (d'Spatz in Wasserbillig), features the largest port (Port du Mertert) and the only spa town (Mondorf-les-Bains) as well as the ecologically most valuable wetland (Haff Réimech nature reserve).
History was written in one of the many wine-growing villages of the region: the Schengen Agreement created the "Schengen Area", which enables freedom of travel and movement for people and goods between signatory countries. Thanks to these achievements of the European integration process, Schengen is often referred to as the "cradle of Europe".
LEADER has adopted this European spirit: in cooperation with the neighbouring region of Moselfranken in Germany, Miselerland has produced a joint local development strategy. Both regions thus form the first transnational LEADER region in Europe and implement many LEADER projects together across the Luxembourg-German border. Local and regional projects that help to bring the Miselerland region further complement the international cooperation activities.
