The Division of Honour (Luxembourgish: Éierepromotioun, French: Promotion d'Honneur, German: Ehrenpromotion) is the second-level football league in Luxembourg. It lies below the National Division and above the 1. Division.

Each season, the two top-finishing teams in the Division of Honour are automatically promoted to the National Division. The teams that finish the season in third and fourth place enter a play-off match against the teams finishing in thirteenth and fourteenth in that season's National Division. The two lowest-finishing teams are relegated to the 1. Division, with the teams in thirteenth and fourteenth also facing a play-off match against the teams finishing in second in the two Series in 1. Division. [1]
