Although they were reinstated in 1814 by the Pope, the Jesuits only returned to Luxembourg in 1895. The politically unfavourable situation for the reestablishment of religious orders undoubtedly delayed their return. Settled in the area near the train station, the Jesuits from Germany remained there until 1902 when they moved to Limpertsberg into the "Writers' Home" that they had recently constructed. This residence was abandoned in 1911, and a new one was established on Avenue de la Faïencerie, experiencing a certain decline, especially after the First World War. Starting in 1931, the Jesuits moved to the Belair neighborhood, where they built a chapel and their residence. Their activities in the service of the diocese were quite successful. The German invasion put an end to the Jesuits' activities in January 1941. In late 1944, the Jesuits returned, sent by the provincial superior of the Southern Belgian province of the order.
