Buurgplaatz

Buurgplaatz (alternate names: Buergplaatz, Burrigplatz, Burgplatz, Buergplaz zu Huldang) is a hill in the commune of Troisvierges, in northern Luxembourg. The 559 m summit lies within the Éislek region at 50.1615°N, 6.0281°W.

In 1952 the Institut national de l'information géographique et forestière declared Buurgplaatz the highest point in Luxembourg. Previously Napoléonsgaard hill at 547 m, located in the Canton of Redange, was considered the highest point.

In 1997 Buurgplaatz lost its status as highest point after GPS survey determined Kneiff at 560 m was 1m higher. The declaration plaque on the summit remains and Buurgplaatz may still be erroneously considered the highest point in Luxembourg.
