Apostolic Nunciature to Luxembourg

The Apostolic Nunciature to Luxembourg is an ecclesiastical office of the Catholic Church in Luxembourg. It is a diplomatic post of the Holy See, whose representative is called the Apostolic Nuncio with the rank of an ambassador. The title Apostolic Nuncio to Luxembourg is held by the prelate appointed Apostolic Nuncio to Belgium; he resides in Brussels.

Pope Leo XIII established the Apostolic Internunciature to Luxembourg in January 1891[citation needed][a] and Pope Pius XII raised it to the status of Apostolic Nunciature to Luxembourg on 24 October 1955.[2]
