    *“Müller”, the German word for miller is one of the most common surnames in Luxembourg. This underlines the importance of the job in the past. Around 1900, Luxembourg had 250 mills whose main purpose was to produce flour. It was only after the Second World War that the smaller mills began to disappear.
