Description: The Court of Justice is based in Luxembourg since the beginning of European integration, that is to say since 1952. Since 1972, it was located on the Kirchberg plateau. To meet the needs arising from development of its business, an expansion project in three phases was developed during the '80s. A first extension was authorized by the Act of July 25, 1985 (now known as Building A Erasmus), a second by the Act of September 7, 1987 (now known as Building B "Thomas More") and a third by the Act of December 18, 1990 (Building C).
