Emanuel and Bibi Milioto moved in to their house in the Strassburger Allee in October last year.  After having spent 4 years i Dudelange, Luxembourg they started looking for a building land.  An old friend of theirs had already built on Auf Mont and he recommended a visit. As they one day made the drive to Wincheringen, they were blown away with its beauty. Their first stop was the Europaplatz in front of the Kindergarten. They immediately realized that this place had a lot of potential. Soon after they reserved the plot 118, that later became their new home...

Emanuel is the Head of Department at the Service des Finances et de la Comptabilité Maison du Savoir at the University of Luxembourg. Bibi works for Deloitte in Luxembourg. We all wish you welcome to Auf Mont, Wincheringen!!!

The new home of the Milito's at Auf Mont.

The Tennis Club was founded back in 1981. 

With over 150 members it is one of the most active clubs in Wincheringen. The idyllic location with 2 clay courts and  a club house with locker rooms offers everything you would need as a member. The Club also offers tennis practice for all age groups in cooperation with a tennis school. The outdoor season is about to start, and the club will participate with the following teams in the club competition:

Herren 1                    A-Klasse                        U18-1 Jungen             A-Klasse

Herren 2                    D-Klasse                      U18-2 Jungen              C-Klasse

Damen                         B-Klasse                           U12 gemischt 1         A-Klasse

U 18 Mädchen           A-Klasse           U12 gemischt 2          B-Klasse

U 15 Mädchen           B-Klasse            U10 gemischt               A-Klasse

On top of that the Club also participates in the Mixed competition during July/August, organized by the Federation. Here it is all about having fun, Men & Women together starting from the age of 16.

Town meeting the 21.2 at 6pm concerning repair works on road from Wincheringen to Luxembourg!

Starting end February/beginning March, the road leading from the round about down at the bridge, up to Wincheringen will be closed for several months. The road will be repaired and also made wider than the current road. A sidewalk will be added as well. This is of course good news, seen long term..but will of course cause us to drive a detour going to Luxembourg. So if you want to get to Wincheringen coming from Luxembourg, you need to take a right in the round about after the bridge and then a left towards Helfant and Wincheringen approx 3-4 km later.

The mayor has announced a town meeting on the 21st of February at 6pm in the Gemeindehaus to discuss the matter. The mayor, as well as the construction company, will be present at this meeting. They will try to answer all of your questions.

New road names in the 5th phase:

The Commune of Wincheringen has decided on two new names for the streets down in the 5th phase. As well as the Brüsseler Allee and the Amsterdamer Allee, we will now have the Prager Allee and the Stockholmer Allee as well.

We would like to thank the members of the board in the commune for adding a scandinavian city to Auf Mont. Much appreciated!!:)

It's party time in Wincheringen!!

The old and beloved tradition of celebrating Carnival is once more around the corner. And as always, with a different theme. This year's theme: The 70' and Flower Power!

So dig out your old 70's clothes (or lend/rent some) and show up at the party!

The party will be at the sports hall of the school in Wincheringen. The guests will get a spectacular show with music, dance and stand-up comedy. It is truly great fun, even if you don't get all the stand-up in the Wincheringer dialect..

Two dates are planned. The 1st Kappensitzung will be on the 11.02 and the 2nd on the 18.02. Both evenings will start at 20h11 and end...late.

Next up is the Carnival Party for Kid's & Parents on the 12.02 starting at 14h11. Get yourself and your kid dressed up (whatever comes to mind) and enjoy a great afternoon in the sports hall. Then on the 23.02 you can come by the sports hall at 15h11 for the "Fetten Donnerstag". Various drinks together with cookies & cakes with music. Later, that same night, you can celebrate the Mallorca Party with your fellow Wincher friends. Happy Hour all night long and live performances from various DJ's and artists are expected. You can buy your ticket at Autodienst Lang or Gasthaus Backendorf. Kid's party is free of charge.

And finally (as if we didn't party enough by now) we will all join forces on the streets of Wincheringen to see the yearly Parade. Over 20 teams have prepared and dressed up to entertain us. Free candy and wine for all spectators. Start: 15h11. Bring a glass!!!

All events are arranged by the KC "Wei Rünn"  WIncheringen. The club would be very happy to get new members helping them out!  https://www.facebook.com/kcwincheringen/

We now have 16 new beautiful plots available  in Auf Mont at the end of the Brüsseler Allee. This is a very peaceful and attractive area just next to the forest with direct access to walking and biking trails.

On the 31th of December the Silvesterlauf will take place again. As always organized by the Sportverein in Wincheringen. A great way to work off some calories after Christmas!! The race is free of charge and you don't have to sign up in advance. Just show up!!!

Where: Sportplatz, Wincheringen.     Start: 14.00hrs.     Distances: 10km, 7,5km and 4,5km.

So, having finished the race you go home, take a quick shower and get yourself down to the market square where the Silvesterglühwein event is taking place. From 14-18 in the afternoon you can enjoy a big variety of drinks from Glühwein, Kinderpunsch, Beer, Wincheringer viez and apple juice as well as sausages and a vegan burger called "The Blacky Burger" from the Genuss-Fabrik Trier. Mr Jörg Stoller, who own's the Genuss Fabrik Trier  together with his wife is a "Wincheringer" and learned his craft at the local butcher store Grün in Wincheringen.

Sound's like a good way to start the New Year's party? YES, it does!   We would also like to thank the Sportverein and the IHKW for organizing these great events! See posters below!

The yearly Auf Mont Christmas party took place on Sunday the 27.11 at our sales office in Wincheringen. Drinks, finger food, sweets for the kids and traditional christmas carols where offered. A great number of guests, including our mayor Mr Schömann, showed up to make it yet another great party.

The highlight of the evening was of course our "special guest" Nikolaus (aka. Andreas) who turned up at 17 to hand out gifts to the kids. Many thanks for a job well done, Andreas!

Also, thanks to all of you that showed up to spend a few hours together with us. We really appreciated it!

Hope to see you back next year!

Nikolaus showed up at the party!

Starting 2017, we will be able to enjoy the company of yet another Luxembourgish family on site:  The Schockweiler's!

André and Carole are the proud parents of Noemie (17), Lena (9) and Leo (5). For the moment they all live in Stadtbredimus in Luxembourg approx. 15min away from Wincheringen along the Moselle river.

They have almost finished building their house up in the Strassburger Allee 35. It is located in  the back top corner of Auf Mont with the forest behind them. 

They found out about Auf Mont back in 2008, and visited already then the “empty” site. They liked what they saw, and came back 2015 to buy the plot they had fallen for. Their house is now to be finished in the next weeks and they are really looking forward to joining our community!

In fact, they already signed up almost the entire family to volunteer at the Silvester-Glühwein without even having moved in! Now that’s the kind of spirit we need around here!! Respect!

Why Auf Mont?

Both Andre & Carole love the view up on Auf Mont. They also find it great to have the house just next to the forest where they can enjoy long walks together. The great variety and nice standard of the houses was another thing that appealed to them.

From day one, they felt very well taken care of by Family Park and the commune of Wincheringen when it came to supporting them and answering their questions.

Andre and Carole both work in Luxembourg (Schuttrange & Fentange) and claim that traffic is not a big issue for them, driving to and from Luxembourg .

So nothing could be better?

Well, Carole mentioned at the end of the interview that she would like to see a bus station somewhere Auf Mont. For both kid’s going to school as well as adults going to Luxembourg to work. We will take it up with the commune and come back to you if this proves to be possible!

Many thank’s to the Schockweiler’s for sharing with us!

Welcome to Wincheringen!

The backside of the almost finished house.

A very nice view over the Moselle valley.

Vandalism on site!

For us, the main vision has always been the same:

If you live on  Auf Mont, you should really feel that you are part of something special. That you are well taken care of and that you and your kids are enjoying a great time living on Auf Mont.

We are sorry to say that some people take great pleasure in destroying this vision!!

Vandalism and grafitti, may be described as an act of violence—a hate crime—perpetrated against property and, by proxy, against a community.

Lately, persons not known to us, have sprayed graffiti all over our beautiful playground.  It’s not only expensive to repair. It also makes our communities unattractive and unsafe. And for sure it isn’t cool.

Our mayor, Mr Schömann, has filed charges against this crime. If you know or see anything that could help us in this matter, please call the police in Saarburg on: 06581- 91550. Or call us on +352 691 156553.

Finally the top layer of asphalt has been laid in the streets of Frankfurter Allee, Strassburger Allee, Pariser Allee and Danziger Allee. It was a very quick operation and we would like to thank the company Elenz from Konz for a job well done!

It does not make sense to finish the top layer on a street before most houses are built, because of all the heavy trucks passing by on the street.

 But in these streets, more or less all construction work has been done, so the time was right.

We hope that all the inhabitants are happy with the result!!

5 years ago, John and Sandra Stoltz moved into their house in  Auf Mont at the Luxemburger Allee 2.

They are in the house construction business representing the company Bärenhaus since 2009. They came across Auf Mont because of a client that wanted to build there. They took an instant like of the area, and decided to move here as soon as possible.

They love the area, the Mosel view and the calmness on Auf Mont.

Their kids and the dog also love it up on site.

They have their office in Remich, approx. 15min away from Wincheringen. Traffic along the Mosel is not a problem according to both.

They would love to see a bus stop up on Auf Mont. To have a school bus passing by would be very convenient.

The house they live in also serves as a Show House. If you know friends who are planning to build a house, please send them to John& Sandra for a visit at the Luxemburger Allee 2!

The company Grüntextur has been a long time partner of ours at Auf Mont. They have helped us to construct the landscaping on site and also maintained it since the start.

Here a few words from Ms Katharina Dietz, one of the owners of the company:

Our company is based in Saarburg. Founded in 2012, we work in the area of ​​Moselle-Saar, throughout Rhineland-Pfalz and Luxembourg, wherever we are needed. A landscape architect and a master gardener together lead the team of gardening and landscaping specialists of long-time trained and specialized employees. This guarantees the professional execution of the projects. We work in a team of 25 employees who are motivated and supported together. Knowledge, trends and new techniques are continually updated through training or exchange with other companies. We exclusively purchase plants from renowned tree nurseries and building materials from experienced retailers. Due to our wide-spread network, the know-how of other divisions can also be used as required.

The symbiosis of planning and execution is our strength. Through creative ideas, high design quality and detailed consulting, we offer you individual customer support. We strive to find a suitable solution for every budget.

The focus is on the customer and his or her's desire for the very personal garden paradise.

Lawn plant

If you have not managed to create a lawn in the spring, you have the opportunity to do so in October. By the end of the month lawns and meadows can still be sown, because many seeds run even in cooler weather The soil is still warm and the seed has sufficient moisture to germinate (some species even need winter cold to overcome germination). Since the outdoor time is running out, the lawn can now develop quietly.

Lawn care

With a potash fertilization in the late autumn, you increase the frost resistance of your lawn.

Planting time

The planting season has started with the leaf fall. When deciduous trees have dropped their leaves, they can be transplanted. Many trees and shrubs still form fine roots after the planting on warm autumn and winter days. Thorough watering helps the plants to grow before the frost.

Shrubs, roses, hedges and conifers can now be purchased and planted as roots. Delicate plants such as peaches, apricots or table grapes and already shrubbed perennials are planted better in spring.

When planting potted perennials, be careful not to damage the root balloon. Press the plants and pour them so that the roots get ground contact. A thin layer of humus protects soil and plants and at the same time serves as a nutrient supply. 

It was truly a great event!

Seeing all these people from all these different nations just having a great time together made you ask yourself the question why the world looks the way it does today.

A cold and hostile wind is blowing through Europe these days, telling us to close our borders and care more about ourselves instead of helping others in need.

After that day in Wincheringen that just felt downright stupid!

The president of the IHKW, Mr Donkel, said:

"It was amazing! I had hoped that it would be so - and my hopes were exceeded.
The atmosphere was very good from the beginning and got better and better during
the day and evening - and as finally the Unplugged Gang started playing, people
where singing and dancing! It was wonderful! Many thanks to all of you !!"

As far as we are informed the Fest der Nationen will come back next year! So keep an
eye open for the date.

Where:

Closest one in Bilzingen.

Werner Jacobi, Bilzingen 34.

Once in Bilzingen, take a right into to the street Zum Wetterbrunnen. Continue until that road splits 3 ways. Take the middleroad up left. After 100m you have it on your left hand side.

And so our journey continues through the streets of Auf Mont......

This time around it has taken us to the end of the Strassburger Allee, No 19, where the Mousel-Donkels family lives since a few weeks.

The composition of the family however, does not represent the average composition of families on Auf Mont: 2 adults, 1 dog and...... 10 cats!

There is no doubt we have welcomed yet another family with a big heart for animals!!

View towards the house

Fernand works for Dupont in Contern and Yasmine works at the Maison Relais in Dreiborn, Wormeldange.

As their youngest daughter lives in Wincheringen since a few years, they came accross the project Auf Mont and decided to make the step over the water. Only 1 year after the house was sold in Luxembourg, the new house was ready to move in to. Talk about a smooth ride...

This is a true sunshine story with only positive stories to tell. Starting with the quick and easy handeling of all the paperwork from Team Familypark to a quick and efficient house builder (Drybud sarl).

The Mousel-Donkels with their dog

Why Auf Mont?

Just as all other AufMont'ers they love the view overlooking the Mousel valley. Also the fact that they have the forest behind their backyard is a big plus!

What differs AufMont from many other new communities is the fact that you don't have the "Cité-feeling". Lots of space between the houses and the proximety to the forest are great feratures. And just as a pleasant breeze moves through the quiet of the trees behind the house, you realize that you are so much luckier than many city dwellers locked up between blocks of concrete.

So there is nothing that could be better??

Well, Yasmine answers.. A playground for dogs would be great. Somewhere where the dogs could run free inside a fenced area. And where other dog owners could meet and have a chat (french for cat. Sorry for the cheap joke! Red). As well as the family Long/Skipp from the last Newsletter, they hope to see the Plaza finished asap. Would be great with a café, some shops, a doctor and perhaps even a pharmacy on site?

FYI.: This is a priority for us and we are currently in negotiations with various companies in order to make it happen!!

We thank Yasmine and Fernand for their time and their honest opinions and once again welcome them to our community AufMont!!

On a sunny Wednesday evening (for a change) we had the pleasure of visiting one of our Auf Mont- families; Mr Adam Long and Dr Jennifer Skipp and their two children Johnny (7) and Jackson (5), living in the Danziger Allee 6.

They have now lived on site for 3 years and they all really enjoy the house and the community on  site. Adam works for Cargolux in Luxembourg and Jennifer works for the universities of Trier and Luxembourg.

View from the Danziger Allee!

How did they find us?

After having moved from Austria to Luxembourg, they where looking for a place to “settle down”. A spontanious visit to Auf Mont really got them convinced.

After having seen the Plaza, the amazing view and the Playground as well as having a friendly conversation with one of the locals, they made the decision to become Auf Monters!!

Today Jennifer is active in the Elternverein of the KiTa, and Adam is organizing the Sunday morning football at the playgrounds. He also plays with the “Alt Herren” of Wincheringen as well.

A great example of integration in Wincheringen.

They where really pleased with the treatment of the Auf Mont Team, getting them information and answers to their questions.

They also stated that they would like to see a community forum on site, in order to arrange Events, Parties and potentially help newcommers with advice and help concerning house building, schools, shops, etc.

This is something we are currently working on and we will address this again at a later time, to see who would like to help out with this project.

It was a real treat spending an hour with this family and we thank them for sharing the information with us!

Important: If you  consider yourself  as “the Football player that REALLY enjoys that beer afterwards”, please contact Adam!!

We will be back with a new member of the Auf Mont family in our next edition: The Mousel family in the Strassburger Allee 19. The house is close to being completed, and they are just waiting to move in.....

The annual fair in Wincheringen will take it's place between the 25th-27th of June at the fair ground next to the fire brigade. Bring your family and kid's to a great weekend with bumper cars, shooting gallery, wheel of fortune, food & drinks!

Therefore we have hired 3 students for the summer season, added to the 2 employees we have already.

Please welcome Lukas, Tatjana & Jan to our Auf Mont Team!

Make sure you make them feel "home"!

If you spot them on site, don't hesitate to say hi or to spoil them with some sweets!!!:)

PS. It would be much appreciated if you can help us by mowing the green strip in front of your house, if you have one.. Many of you do it already, but just as a short reminder..DS.
