About Belval

Belval is a village. Location: Sanem, Esch-sur-Alzette. Elevation: 311 m.

From Wikipedia

Belval is a neighbourhood in the communes of Esch-sur-Alzette and Sanem, in south-western Luxembourg. Belval is the site of the large steelworks that dominate the city. Due to the dominance of the steelworks, Belval suffered from the abandonment of steel production in Luxembourg, and is undergoing an extensive regeneration programme to help diversify beyond steel production.
