Flying a drone in Diekirch — the complete guide
Do you need a drone licence in Diekirch?
Yes. Operators must register through MyGuichet.lu for drones over 250 g, or under 250 g with a camera or personal-data sensor unless it is a toy, and display their operator number on the drone. A1/A3 is the base open-category training, and A2 is needed for flights closer to uninvolved people. Diekirch is more rural than Luxembourg City, but it has real constraints: an enclosed valley, the Sure, bridges, railway station, barracks, commemorative sites, tourism events, roads and relative proximity to northern aerodromes. The g-o.lu/uas map must be checked as the legal source before every outing.
Airport zones and no-fly areas
Diekirch requires regional awareness, not only a local check.
- ELLX Luxembourg-Findel: follow national and temporary UAS zones published by the DAC.
- Noertrange and Useldange aerodromes: zones cited by the DAC as prohibited depending on conditions.
- Sure valley: bridges, roads, walkers, flood zones and terrain.
- EL-UAS-TSA6 and EL-UAS-TSA7: Diekirch military north and south zones that can be activated punctually.
- Forests and Natura areas: wildlife, hikers and environmental restrictions.
Where can you fly legally in Diekirch?
Plateaus toward Gilsdorf outside villages may suit A3 exercises with landowner permission and Geoportail checks. Bettendorf countryside after Geoportail check offers space if roads, farms and walkers are avoided. Open paths toward Erpeldange away from crowds require distance from hikers and the valley. Nearby open agricultural land outside villages is safer than treating distant tourist hills as city spots; choose fields only with permission and after a map check. Avoid very busy viewpoints and flights over bridges or the Sure when people are present.
Flying in Diekirch city centre
The centre, railway station, bridges, museum, schools, shopping streets, barracks and ceremonial areas are not places for recreational flight. Terrain, buildings, people and transport infrastructure reduce margins. A professional operator must check g-o.lu/uas, obtain the relevant site permissions, secure the ground and respect privacy. Operations near a commemorative or military event must be coordinated with the authorities, especially if EL-UAS-TSA6 or EL-UAS-TSA7 is active. In the open category, a drone cannot pass over an audience gathered on a square or along a procession.
Seasonal and event restrictions
The Diekirch Cavalcade, the Diekirch Military Centre Open Day, military commemorations, municipal festivals, markets, events on the Sure, races and Tour de Luxembourg stages if they pass nearby can create temporary restrictions or assemblies. The DAC published a 3 NM drone ban for the Military Centre Open Day on 13 July 2025, which is a useful example of local temporary restrictions. Valley weather, floods, rescue operations and forestry work are also reasons to postpone a flight. Before filming in Diekirch, check the map on the day itself because Geoportail zones are the authoritative reference.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get a drone licence?
Most students complete the A1/A3 online theory exam in 1-2 days of study. The A2 CoC requires a self-declaration and additional study, typically 1-2 weeks.
Is the drone licence valid across the UK?
Yes — all drone licences issued in the United Kingdom are recognised across the UK.
Can I fly during the Diekirch Cavalcade?
No in the open category. The Cavalcade attracts a large crowd and overflight of assemblies is prohibited. You should also check whether a temporary UAS zone has been published by the DAC on Geoportail.
Are the hills around Diekirch easier for drones?
They can be more suitable than the centre, but you still need to check UAS zones, northern aerodromes, forests, trails and private property. The 120 m AGL height is measured relative to the nearest terrain, which matters a lot in valleys.
