Luxembourg: Address and Telephone Directories

Telephone directories are used by genealogists and historians to identify people and businesses from a particular place and era. This guide lists the directories from Luxembourg in the Library of Congress collections.

Introduction

Most of the foreign telephone directories held by the Library of Congress are uncataloged, we have therefore compiled this list of Luxembourgish directories as a finding aid for our staff and researchers. These directories cover Luxembourg between the years 1936-1997. There are approximately 60 directories. In addition to the uncataloged directories listed on the next page, the Library also holds a handful that are cataloged and may be requested using the online catalog. To locate these directories, search the Library of Congress Online Catalog using subject keywords such as "Luxembourg" and "directories," or the name of a city plus "directories." In addition to telephone directories, this kind of search also yields business/address directories from Luxembourg.

Besides using printed telephone directories, a reader may find it helpful to use online directories available for free on the Internet. The telephone portal site Infobel External provides a database of business entries for each European country, including Luxembourg.
