Buurgplaatz (alternate names: Buergplaatz, Burrigplatz, Burgplatz, Buergplaz zu Huldang) is a hill in the commune of Troisvierges, in northern Luxembourg. The 559 metre high summit lies within the Oesling region at 50°10′N, 6°1′E[1].

It is often erroneously considered the highest point in Luxembourg (so much so that there is a plaque on the summit celebrating as such). Actually, it is the second highest, after Kneiff (560 m).
