Éitermillen (French: Oetrange-Moulin), is a settlement and lieu-dit centred around a former mill near Moutfort in the Commune of Contern in Luxembourg. It is located on the E29 main road.[1][2][3] Éitermillen is elevated 265 metres above sea level and is in post code area L-5331.[4][5][6]
History
Éitermillen as a settlement dates back to the 19th century. Oetrange-Moulin is listed in the 1890 census as a locality having a population of 8.[7] Eitermillen was later mentioned in a decree in 1894 allowing for the path between Éitermillen and Kackerterhaff to see maintenance at the cost of 200 Luxembourgish Francs.[8][9] An alternative name, "Moulin Diederich" is found on various maps from 1905 to 1939.[10][11]
In 1897 a building was constructed on Route de Remich which is now central to Éitermillen. It was converted in 1969 to the restaurant "Hostellerie La Cheminée". In 1974 a traffic collision destroyed the chimney attached to the building. The restaurant would later become "Ma Langue Sourit", a 2 Michelin star restaurant.[12][13]
Geography
Éitermillen is located in the commune of Contern, in the Canton of Luxembourg. The settlement is grouped into both the cadastral section and locality of Oetrange.[14] Centred on road N2, a part of European route E29, Éitermillen lies in the valley of the Kackeschbaach.[6]
