History
Éitermillen as a settlement dates back to the 19th century. Oetrange-Moulin is listed in the 1890 census as a locality having a population of 8.
Eitermillen was later mentioned in a decree in 1894 allowing for the path between Éitermillen and
Kackerterhaff to see maintenance at the cost of 200 Luxembourgish Francs.
An alternative name, "Moulin Diederich" is found on various maps from 1905 to 1939.
In 1897 a building was constructed on Route de Remich which is now central to Éitermillen. It was converted in 1969 to the restaurant "Hostellerie La Cheminée". In 1974 a traffic collision destroyed the chimney attached to the building. The restaurant would later become "Ma Langue Sourit", a 2 Michelin star restaurant.
