Grevenmacher ({{langx|lb|Gréiwemaacher}}) is a canton in the east of Luxembourg. The canton's name derives from Grevenmacher, a commune with town status. Neither the canton, town, or commune of Grevenmacher should be confused with the former district of Grevenmacher, one of three administrative units in Luxembourg abolished in October 2015. It borders Germany.
