A place of remembrance for the barbarity of war

Nice park to start a walk in peace

It is between Etalle and Virton, very precisely in Croix-Rouge, that you will find the place called "Trou des Fées". Well known to the inhabitants of the region, this unique site is at the center of many legends relating to the history of D’jean dMady but also and especially to that of the fairies of Gaume.

333 French soldiers are buried in this cemetery. 267 of them have been identified and are buried in individual graves. 66 unknown individuals are buried in 35 individual or communal graves.

A must see...

Unmissable for the Red Cross: Dive into an enchanted kingdom where legends and mysteries weave the fabric of the landscape… This mountain of sand, like a sleeping giant, reveals its heart of stone sculpted by the whims of time. At the dawn of the Jurassic, erosion gently carved out winding galleries, while the main gallery, 15 meters long, arouses a curious fascination. Was it an offering from the ancients, shaped by human hands, or simply the patient work of nature? The flints found nearby whisper echoes of prehistory, silent witnesses of a bygone era. The Trou des Fées, guardian of forgotten secrets, awaits you.

Built at the beginning of the 20th century by the Count of Saintignon. After drilling to a depth of 900 m to try to discover a coal deposit, he discovered a spring that would be called the source of the Récollets. The spring gushes at a temperature of 24 °C! The Count then undertook to make Longwy a spa town. To this end, he had a spa resort built with 2 buildings: the thermal baths and the spa hotel, which today houses the Town Hall. In 1920, the Town requested to be classified as a spa resort, but was refused. Over time, the building housed major institutions, such as the Union des Mines Métaux and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry. (source: Town of Longwy)
