Brussels is seen as the EU capital, but technically there is no single capital.

The EU institutions also have official seats in both Luxembourg and Strasbourg. Agencies are linked to specific towns in Europe. The list of home towns can only be changed by unanimity amongst all  member states.

More than one million citizens have signed a petition to stop the European Parliaments`s “travelling circus” between Strasbourg and Brussels.
