The LEADER region Zentrum Westen stretches north-west of Luxembourg City from the Belgian border up to the centre of the Grand Duchy. Bordering the suburbs of Luxembourg City, the region has a much higher population density than the other LEADER regions. The Zentrum Westen region impresses with its unique landscapes. The largest habitat protection zone in Luxembourg, which is part of the European Natura 2000 network can be found between the valleys of the Mamer and Eisch rivers. The so-called ‘Valley of the Seven Castles’ also belongs to the area covered by the LEADER region, as several important cultural monuments from all eras of human history.
