    This church is located on a hill. From here you can enjoy a really nice view over the city.

      The castle of the first Count of Arlon, Waléran, was erected on the mound in the 11th century then destroyed in 1558 along with the city ramparts by the troops of the Duke of Guise. When the Capuchin Fathers settled in Arlon in 1621, they built their convent on the ruins of the castle. In 1682, a “Vauban” type bastioned enclosure was erected, transforming the convent into a citadel. Victim of lightning in 1719, the church is dedicated to Saint Donat. The old Capuchin convent was definitively abolished in 1796. Only the church remained and was redeveloped in the 20th century, with the construction of the Belvedere.
