Oetrange (Luxembourgish: Éiter, German: Oetringen) is a small town in the commune of Contern, in south-eastern Luxembourg.

The N2, the main connecting road between Remich and the city, runs 2 kilometers south along the village.

Nevertheless, a large part of the German border traffic passes through the bus lanes through Oetrange to get to work in the city.

Nic Thill, a hobby archaeologist and former teacher of Etter, made significant discoveries in the 1930s.

He found, first in the quarry at the Kackerter Haff and later also at Huelen Äer (a hank southwest of the heath ), prehistoric animal bones and handicrafts.

There stood a large Roman villa on the Kiem, an important military and trade route that connected Metz with Trier and led through Oetrange.

One proof of this occupation is the Frankish tombs that were uncovered during the construction of the road, between Oetrange and Canach, towards the end of the nineteenth century .

The Franks and the Alemanni, who immigrated to late antiquity, destroyed the Roman villas before settling in the area.
