The Association des Girl Guides Luxembourgeoises (AGGL, Association of Luxembourgish Girl Guides) is a Guiding association in Luxembourg. The association was founded in 1916 under the name Les Guides de Luxembourg.[1] The interreligious and coeducational association serves about 220 members.[2]
The AGGL was among the founder members of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) in 1928. In 1960, the membership was transferred to the Bureau de Liaison des Associations Guides du Luxembourg, formed by the AGGL and the Lëtzebuerger Guiden (since 1994 Lëtzebuerger Guiden a Scouten).

- Wichtel/Wëllef (Brownies/Cub Scout) - ages 7 to 11
