The Alcide De Gasperi building (named after Italian statesman Alcide De Gasperi) is a skyscraper in Kirchberg, north-eastern Luxembourg City, in southern Luxembourg. At 770NaN0 tall and with 23 floors, it was the first skyscraper and the tallest building in Luxembourg, and was thus dubbed Luxembourgish; Letzeburgesch: Héichhaus ('High House') in Luxembourgish.[1] [2] It was built in 1966 to house the Secretariat of the European Parliament.[1]
