Schifflange (French pronunciation: [ʃiflɑ̃ʒ]; Luxembourgish: Schëffleng, pronounced [ˈʃəfleŋ] ⓘ, German: Schifflingen, pronounced [ˈʃɪflɪŋən]) is a commune and town in south-western Luxembourg. It is part of the canton of Esch-sur-Alzette.

As of 2023, the commune has a population of 11,363.[1]

Schifflange was formed on 15 August 1876, when it was detached from the commune of Esch-sur-Alzette. The law forming Schifflange was passed on the 6 July 1876.[2]

Steelworks

Steelworks, Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg, May 1995

A steelworks in Schifflange was founded in 1871 by the Metz family as Usine METZ (Esch-Schifflange), the steelworks became part of ARBED in 1911. In the 1980s the plant was converted to the continuous casting of blooms, then in the 1990s an electric furnace installed.[3] In 1994 the company merged with the Belgian company Métallurgique et Minière de Rodange-Athus (MMRA) forming ARES (Aciéries Rodange Esch-Schifflange). In the first decade of the 21st century ownership passed from Arcelor to ArcelorMittal, in 2008 becoming ArcelorMittal Rodange and Schifflange S.A. together with the plant in Rodange.[4]

The steelworks shut down in 2012 and were largely demolished starting in 2016.[5] The site is due to be converted into a large mixed-use neighbourhood with housing for 10,000 residents, served by the planned Luxembourg-Esch-sur-Alzette light rail.[6]
