Field Report
Luxembourg is a tiny country tucked between France, Germany, and Belgium in the heart of Europe — so small that you could drive from one end to the other in about an hour. Even though it is little, it has a grand duke for a ruler, three official languages, and a capital city built on dramatic rocky cliffs. Most people there are not following Jesus closely, which makes it a place worth knowing about and praying for.

Red Deer
Red deer roam the dense forests of the Ardennes in northern Luxembourg and are a beloved symbol of the country's wild woodlands.
White Stork
White storks pass through Luxembourg on their long migrations between Europe and Africa, nesting on rooftops and tall chimneys in rural villages.
European Otter
The European otter has made a quiet comeback in Luxembourg's clean river valleys after nearly disappearing from the region decades ago.
Judd mat Gaardebounen
This national dish of smoked pork collar with broad beans has a rich, hearty flavor that Luxembourgers have been enjoying for generations.
Gromperekichelcher
These crispy potato fritters seasoned with parsley and onion are a favorite street food, especially at outdoor markets and fairs.
Quetschentaart
A simple open-faced tart made with sweet-tart Damson plums, this dessert is baked every autumn when the plum trees are heavy with fruit.
Luxembourg is one of the smallest countries in the world, yet it is surrounded by three much larger nations — France, Germany, and Belgium — all within a short drive.
The city of Luxembourg sits on top of dramatic rocky cliffs called the Bock, and beneath the city lies a labyrinth of tunnels carved into the sandstone over centuries.
Luxembourg has three official languages — Luxembourgish, French, and German — which means many children grow up switching between all three before they finish school.
Luxembourg is home to more banks per square mile than almost any other place on earth, making its tiny capital one of the most important financial centers in Europe.
The Grand Duke of Luxembourg is one of the last ruling monarchs in Europe, meaning Luxembourg is still officially governed by a royal family today.
