No definitive date has been set for the closure of the Gasperich site but the building will have to be vacated by the first quarter of 2024, according to a report in Luxembourg Times, which is also published by Mediahuis.
Talks on how the 26 employees will be affected by the announced closure will begin this week but a formal redundancy plan has not been envisioned.
Belgian-based company Mediahuis took over publication of the Wort when it purchased Saint-Paul Luxembourg SA in 2020. Mediahuis owns Belgian paper De Standaard, Dutch outlets NRC Handelsblad and De Telegraaf as well as the Irish Independent, which it acquired in 2019.
