The Saint-Martin de Montmédy church is the church of the Saint-Martin parish in the upper town of Montmédy. The church we see today is not the first to be built on this location. Indeed, a sanctuary surrounded by a cemetery would have been present in the upper part of Montmédy as early as the 11th century. Its origins are rather vague, but historians are certain that from 1156 there was a religious building on the site of the current church2. This monument was quite small and had a single, quite slender tower. According to several old plans of Montmédy, researchers can confirm that it occupied approximately the location between the interior pillars of the current building3. In the 18th century, when Vauban strengthened the fortifications, the rear of the church was shortened to allow the widening of the adjacent rampart. The current church was built on the foundations of a more modest church that probably dates from the 12th century.

Notre-Dame d'Avioth became a basilica in 1993 and is also called "the cathedral of the fields". This flamboyant Gothic masterpiece is surprisingly large in the center of a small village in the north of the French department of Meuse, in the heart of the former county of Chiny, near the abbey of Orval and the citadel of Montmédy. Its construction began in the mid-13th century, after the miraculous appearance of a statue of the Virgin Mary, and extended over three phases: the towers and naves in the 13th century, the choir and the sacristy in the 14th century and the merger between the western and eastern parts from 1375 to 1400. The building was classified as a historic monument in 1840. The basilica is famous for its "Recevresse", located at the church enclosure. Considered unique in the world, this small lacework was designed to welcome the devotions of the pilgrims and receive their offerings. It has been on display in the Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine in Paris since 1898. Until the end of the 18th century, Avioth was a respite church where the Virgin was said to temporarily revive stillborn children in order for them to receive baptism. Today, pilgrims still come in large numbers to pray before the statue of Our Lady of Avioth, especially on July 16 during the ancestral pilgrimage.

The Recevresse was restored by Boeswilwald from 1844 to 1846. The Recevresse is a unique monument in the world. A full-size reproduction is in the Museum of French Monuments in Paris. This flamboyant Gothic masterpiece was probably built on the site of the discovery of the miraculous statue. It replaces the first modest oratorio. At the beginning of the fourteenth century, when the image of Our Lady of Avioth was finally placed in the church, another image of the Virgin took its place to receive the offering of the pilgrims in her name. This statue was called: the receiving Virgin (la vierge recevresse). As time passed, the name of Recevresse was given to the monument.

The Basilica of Our Lady of Avioth is a religious building in Gothic style, built in the 14th century and located in the former county of Chiny (today in the north of the French department of Meuse). It has been classified as a monument historique since the first list of 1840. Given its grandeur and the small size of the village of Avioth, the church is also called "the Cathedral of the Fields", because it appears to have been built in no man's land. It owes its location and size to the fact that the village was located on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostella. The stained glass windows of the Saint-Jean chapel are thanks to the master glassblower Jean-Jacques Grüber (1930). Thus, for eight centuries, the Basilica of Avioth was built and maintained through gifts and sacrifices. This is still the case today. Today this work is continued by the members of the Association of Friends of the Basilica of Avioth, who manage the donations of the many pilgrims. Together with the municipality, the Conseil général de la Meuse and the Direction régionale des affaires culturelles de Lorraine, we ensure the maintenance and management of the basilica. The handcuffs above the statue were placed there by prisoners in gratitude to Our Lady of Avioth for their liberation. The coat of arms on the wall is that of Gilles de Rodemack, provost of Montmédy and governor of Luxembourg at the beginning of the 15th century.

Built between 1753 and 1757, the Saint-Martin church dominates the ramparts of the citadel of Montmédy, renovated by Vauban. This stone building is located on the site of an ancient shrine of which only the chapel of Malandry remains. Bulky, ideal for the large military site it is next to. The classical architecture is specific to the churches of fortified towns, highlighting two imposing square bell towers, as well as a style of remarkable finesse that invites visits. The bronze bell cast in 1558 is one of fifty in the Meuse dating from before the Revolution. On the facade, the remains of the coat of arms of Albert de Meuldre, abbot of Orval, hammered during the Revolution, are a reminder that the church was largely financed by the powerful Cistercian abbey. Inside the nave there is always a canopy above the choir. You can also admire a 17th century painting of Flemish inspiration, depicting the adoration of the shepherds in Bethlehem, and a statue: Virgin and Child from the 14th century. The organ with specific technical details was restored by an association and inaugurated in October 2013. The instrument had not sounded for 97 years!

The Citadel of Montmédy is a beautiful piece of military history that has been preserved. A fortress was built on top of this hill as early as the Middle Ages. From this high point you have a great view of the entire area. After the conquest of the area by Louis XIV, he had his master architect Vauban improve and strengthen the fort. Vauban renovated the fort according to the most modern military ideas at the time and gave it his characteristic shape. The fort has a number of defensive walls around it in a kind of star shape. The idea behind this is that the enemy becomes disoriented once within the first walls. To reach the fort you first have to go through a number of walls and canals. The fort experienced several wars. Its first major test was the Napoleonic Wars, during which it was severely damaged. In the second half of the 19th century there was a confrontation between France and Prussia. Some damaged houses in the village were bombed during that period. In the First World War the garrison left the fortress to flee to nearby Verdun. It was never given a defensive function again. The village itself within the walls is also very nice, although it is still being restored. A large number of houses are still badly damaged.

Mount Saint-Walfroy or hermitage of Saint-Walfroy is a hill in the Ardennes. The summit reaches its peak at 350 meters above sea level. Almost 200 meters lower, the villages are spread out in their valleys, where the rivers meander. To reach Saint-Walfroy you have to climb steep paths. Once at the top, the panorama extends over the Maas and the Ardennes. It is a former place of pagan worship, chosen as a hermitage in the 6th century by Walfroy the Stylite and has since become a place of worship and pilgrimage. This site thus becomes a witness to the vicissitudes of the history of the French Catholic Church and the history of an Ardennes territory, in the immediate vicinity of the border.

A sanctuary for 800 years It was a beautiful discovery that the village of Avioth was born in the 12th century: a resident of a neighboring village found, miraculously emerging from a thorn bush, a wooden statue of the Virgin Mary. From the chapel that was built it quickly became a shrine and a place of pilgrimage. Stillborn children were also baptized; Bernard van Clairvaux sang the Salve Regina for the first time. Today the shrine is still very much alive. For example, the church was inspired to become a basilica by Pope John Paul II in 1993; every year, in mid-July, crowds of pilgrims flock to the Pilgrimage of Our Lady of Avioth.
