List Of Cities In Luxembourg
There are twelve towns in Luxembourg, as defined by statute. Despite the status as towns, they are not all contiguous urbanised areas. They are similar to communes, but have been given a separate legal status. There is a technical difference between the status of commune and towns, but this is limited in practicality. One difference is that '' échevins'' in towns are formally appointed by the Grand Duke, whereas ''échevins'' for other communes are appointed by the Minister for the Interior. Terminology The officially used terms for a town in the sense of this article are ''Stad'' (plural ''Stied'') in Luxembourgish, ''Stadt'' (plural ''Städte'') in German, and ''ville'' (plural ''villes'') in French. All of these terms may be translated as either "town" or "city". However, apart from the capital, Luxembourg, and Esch-sur-Alzette, most of the places have none of the qualities that would award them the status of a "city" according to English usage.

Communes Of Luxembourg
Luxembourg's 102 communes ( lb, Gemengen ; French: ''communes''; german: Gemeinden) conform to LAU Level 2Statec (2003), p. 9&10 and are the country's lowest administrative divisions. Communes rank below cantons in Luxembourg's hierarchy of administrative subdivisions. Communes are often re-arranged, being merged or divided as demanded by demographic change over time. Unlike the cantons, which have remained unchanged since their creation, the identity of the communes has not become ingrained within the geographical sensations of the average Luxembourger. The cantons are responsible for the ceremonial, administrative, and statistical aspects of government, while the communes provide local government services. The municipal system was adopted when Luxembourg was annexed into the French département of Forêts in 1795.
