It is situated in Ville Haute, the historic heart of the city. It lies to the east of Place Guillaume II, across the rue du Fossé.

As the Chamber of Deputies building is located on Krautmaart, 'Krautmaart' is used as a metonym for the Luxembourgian legislature. Despite this, it is the adjoining Grand Ducal Palace that dominates Krautmaart.
