Lucien Lux (born 13 September 1956 in Troisvierges)[1] is a politician and trade unionist from Luxembourg.

A member of the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party, Lux was in the government from 2004 until 2009, under Jean-Claude Juncker.

The 1989 elections saw Lux first enter the Chamber of Deputies, representing Circonscription Sud, after which he stepped down from his position at the OGB-L.[1] He was re-elected in 1994 and in 1999 (in fourth place amongst LSAP candidates in Sud).
