thumb|right|'Klaus' chapel on Klausberg, Trintange, Luxembourg Trintange (; ; ) is a small town in the commune of Bous-Waldbredimus, in south-eastern Luxembourg. , the town has a population of 401. It was the administrative centre of the commune of Waldbredimus until its merger with Bous.
== History == Trintange was mentioned as one of the many localities that were pillaged and devastated under Louis XIV of France. In 1680 under the orders of the French King, the Metz Chamber of Reunion demanded that the Duchy of Luxembourg cede all territories that had belonged at any point to lands surrendered to France since 1648. This was, essentially, the entire duchy with the exception of the capital and the few villages that were part of the priory of Luxembourg. However, several villages that did belong to the priory and were not claimed by France, were also destroyed, around 33 localities including Trintange, Ersange and Roedt.
