The facility, which cost €54.5 million, is being opened after three years of construction and will be directly connected to CHL's children's clinic.

Also present for the inauguration were Minister of Healthy Lydia Mutsch, Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies Mars di Bartolomeo, and Luxembourg City Mayor Lydie Polfer, among other dignitaries.
