- Belval, Luxembourg
Belval is a quarter and
neighbourhood in the west ofEsch-sur-Alzette , in south-westernLuxembourg . Belval is the site of the large steelworks that dominate the city. Due to the dominance of the steelworks, Belval has suffered from the abandonment of steel production in Luxembourg, and is undergoing an extensive regeneration programme to help diversify beyond steel production. The redevelopment plan, costed at €450m, will turn the brownfield site into a large scientific and cultural centre, including the science faculty of theUniversity of Luxembourg .
