Merl is on the western side of Luxembourg City, next to Belair. It is a smaller, mostly residential district, with 6,602 residents at the end of 2025 according to the City of Luxembourg.
The Parc de Merl, with its pond, is one of the city’s best-known parks, and the International School of Luxembourg is in the district.
That makes Merl a natural search area for international families, who often look for a house or a large apartment close to the school.

Selling your property in Merl
- The right price from the start. Apartments in Merl were advertised at €11,474 per m² on average, but an asking price is not a sale price: buyers compare with what has actually sold and negotiate. A price set too high at the start makes the sale longer.
- Your district against the city. Across Luxembourg City, apartments were advertised at €12,086 per m² on average; Merl was about 5% below that.
- The market right now. Across the country, prices in the second quarter of 2026 were 2.2% below a year earlier but 1.1% up on the previous quarter (STATEC): buyers are back, but they compare.
- Documents to prepare. The energy performance certificate (required to sell), the floor plans and, for an apartment, the condominium accounts and minutes of the last general meetings.
