Villa Louvigny stands in the Municipal Park of Luxembourg City, on the former Louvigny fort of the old fortress. The text says it was built in 1920 and names no architect. The infobox lists Pierre Reuter, Nicolas Schmit-Noesen, Hubert Schumacher and Pierre Schaack, and its title carries 2017, which the page does not explain. The article gives no start date, style, materials or dimensions.
It is named for Jean Charles de Landas, Count of Louvigny, a chief engineer and interim governor of the fortress in the 1670s. The Compagnie Luxembourgeoise de Télédiffusion rented it and bought it in 1936. It hosted the Eurovision Song Contest in 1962 and 1966.
The company moved its offices in 1991 and its technical installations in 1996. The Philharmonic Orchestra used the facilities until 2005. The Ministry of Health has used it as its main seat since 2000. The article gives no hours.
