An urban, lively and cosmopolitan district
The Gare district has a resolutely urban and dynamic atmosphere. Its architecture combines fine historic buildings on the Plateau Bourbon, more recent buildings and many mixed-use buildings housing homes, offices and shops.
Avenue de la Liberté is one of the district's main thoroughfares and leads directly to the historic centre via the Adolphe Bridge.
The Gare attracts a very diverse population: working professionals, students, international residents and those who want to make the most of city life.
Schools and family life
Despite its very urban character, the district has schools, crèches and facilities for families.
Its central location also provides easy access to the many educational facilities in neighbouring districts.
The Gare will suit families looking for services and transport right on their doorstep better than those who favour large residential spaces and a very quiet atmosphere.
Shops and services
The richness of its retail offer is one of the district's main assets.
It is home to supermarkets, local shops, boutiques, restaurants, cafés, hotels, medical and professional services, particularly around Avenue de la Gare, Avenue de la Liberté and the adjoining streets.
The immediate proximity of Ville-Haute also provides quick access to the main shopping streets of central Luxembourg.
Transport and mobility
Mobility is undoubtedly one of the Gare district's greatest advantages.
Luxembourg's central station is the country's main rail hub and offers national and international connections.
The district is also directly served by the tram, which runs to the city centre, Kirchberg and the Cloche d'Or among other destinations, as well as by numerous bus lines.
This concentration of transport makes it easy to live here without relying on a car every day.
Property in the Gare district
Property in the Gare district mainly consists of apartments, from homes in fine older buildings to renovated or contemporary residences.
Its central location and excellent public transport links make the area particularly interesting for working professionals and investors.
The atmosphere can vary considerably from street to street: some areas are very lively while others, particularly around the Plateau Bourbon, offer a more residential setting.
Living in the Gare district
Choosing the Gare district means favouring mobility, proximity and resolutely urban living.
With its shops, restaurants, tram, railway station and the city centre a few minutes away, it is one of the capital's most practical districts.
Gare in a few words: central, urban, cosmopolitan, lively, practical and extremely well connected.
