On March 16th, 1994, 11 interested local historians reunited to built up the "Geschichtsfrënn vun der Gemeng Hesper". The general objective was to  preserve and to reappraise the historical and cultural values of a municipality that is economically, politically and culturally the most important one in our country. To the 11 board members of 1994 joined a number of interested residents of the municipality over the years a as club members. Through the joint efforts of all club members a serious basis in historical material and knowledge could be guaranteed.

Over time, exhibitions, lectures, commemorations and local celebrations and  localhistoricalworks were published. There is also a photo - archive, which has grown in a few years to over 10,000 pictures of the municipality of Hesperange. Representatives of our association are repeatedly asked for cooperations in local historical in pamphlets and books. From March 27th, 1996 we are an "Association sans but lucratif" and as such are duly recorded in the Commercial Register.
