Schengen lies in the south-east of Luxembourg, on the Moselle, where the borders of Luxembourg, France and Germany meet. The commune, in the canton of Remich, had 5,265 residents at the start of 2026 (STATEC).
It is made up of nine localities: Schengen, Bech-Kleinmacher, Burmerange, Elvange, Emerange, Remerschen, Schwebsingen, Wellenstein and Wintrange (national register, end of 2025).
The village gave its name to the Schengen Agreement, signed there in 1985.

Selling your property in Schengen
With 15 existing-apartment sales in twelve months, Schengen is a smaller market: buyers notice quickly when a price is out of line.
- The right price from the start. The average was €6,319 per m² for existing apartments, but sales ranged from €4,301 to €8,059: condition, floor, outdoor space, parking and energy class make the difference. A price set too high at the start makes the sale longer.
- 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.
