Arlon, Administrative division of Wallonia, Belgium

Arlon extends its governance across several municipalities within the province of Luxembourg, managing a population of over 255,000 residents in the region.

The settlement began as Orolaunum during Roman times, developing from a Celtic territory of the Treveri tribe into a commercial center of regional importance.

The division operates in French, Dutch, and German languages, reflecting the multilingual nature of its position near the borders of Luxembourg and France.

The administrative headquarters contains offices for provincial services, municipal departments, and regional planning committees that coordinate local development initiatives.

Count Waleran I of Limburg established a strategic castle on Knipchen hill in 1060, marking the beginning of medieval administrative control in the region.
