Luxembourg geography

Luxembourg is one of the smallest countries in Europe. It is ranked 166th in size of all the countries of the world. The country is about 2,586 km². This makes it approximately the same size as many counties in the United States.

The north of the country, part of the Ardennes, has hills and low mountains, with the Buurgplaz as the highest point at 559 m. The rest of the country is also hilly.

Luxembourg's eastern border is formed by three rivers, the Moselle, the Sûre and the Our.

The capital Luxembourg is the largest city of the country. Other important cities are Esch-sur-Alzette (a.k.a. Esch), to the south-west of the capital, and Echternach, against the German border in the east.
