Partial general elections were held in Luxembourg on 3 June 1951, electing 26 of the 52 seats in the Chamber of Deputies in the south and east of the country. The Christian Social People's Party won 12 of the 26 seats, but saw its total number of seats fall from 22 to 21. The elections led to the formation of the coalition Dupong-Bodson Ministry between the Christian Social People's Party and the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party.
