It is located on Campus Geesseknäppchen, along with several other educational institutions, most of which, including the the Lycée Michel Rodange, is in the quarter of Hollerich, in the south-west of the city.[1]

It was founded by law on the 5 August 1968 as the 'Nouveau Lycée de Luxembourg' (English: Luxembourg New School), but was renamed by Grand Ducal decree on 19 January 1970 to its current name,[2] after Michel Rodange, the author of Luxembourg's national epic, Rénert the Fox.[3] Rodange counts Jean-Claude Juncker, current Prime Minister of Luxembourg, amongst its alumni.[4]
