Partial general elections were held in Luxembourg on 9 June 1875, electing members of the Chamber of Deputies. The elections took place in Capellen, Clervaux, Diekirch, Grevenmacher, Luxembourg City, Redange, and Vianden.
Results
Candidates who were successful are in bold.
The electoral system provided for run-off votes, but in this case all successful candidates were elected after only one round with an absolute majority.

Aftermath
A by-election in Grevenmacher was soon organised for 27 July, as Victor Schoren, one of the Grevenmacher Deputies, had been appointed commissioner of the district of Grevenmacher.
Another by-election had to be organised for Vianden, as Adolphe Pauly soon resigned; the election date was set for 15 November. This resulted in the election of Camille Dumont, who was supported by the Blochausen government.
