Europe Day is a public holiday in Luxembourg, and it is observed on May 9. The holiday commemorates the Schuman Declaration which was a famous speech made by French Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs Robert Schuman on May 9, 1950. The Declaration proposed to integrate French and West German coal and steel under a single authority to prevent future conflicts, and it led to the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community in 1951.
The Schuman Declaration was the first step for European countries to cooperate together after World War II, and it was considered as the foundation for the later European Union, which was formed on November 1, 1993.
Luxembourg was one of the members of the European Coal and Steel Community in 1951 and has been actively involved in the creation of the European Union. In 2019, Europe Day became a public holiday in Luxembourg.
