Wooden Boardwalk in Parc Naturel de Gaume

Highlight • Trail

Just before the swamps end, you drive a long stretch over a wooden bridge. It's easy to navigate, and there were no other traffic at all.

This square is full of life. In addition to the bronze statue of the artist Philippe Brodski, the place is full of monuments to discover, such as the large Corten steel arch.

It is also on this square that the D'jean and the D'jeanne, the two giants of Virton, dance every year on July 1st, in front of jubilant residents.

Servais Lahage Mural

Highlight • Monument

La fresque Servais in Lahage is a mural inspired by the work of Jean-Claude Servais, a well-known Belgian cartoonist. The fresco was made by Yves Piedboeuf, another artist from the region. The fresco shows a scene from the album “La belle Coquetière”, which takes place in Lahage. You can admire the fresco on the facade of Lahage12 station.

The fresco is part of the Servais trail, a route that connects several frescoes and statues by Jean-Claude Servais. The Servais trail passes through several municipalities in the province of Luxembourg, such as Tintigny, Virton, Florenville and Chiny3. It is a wonderful way to discover the region and enjoy the art of Jean-Claude Servais.

Montauban Archaeological Site and Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

Nestled in the heart of the Gaume forest, the Montauban site is a mecca for archeology where vestiges of the past, history, heritage, natural riches and contemporary art meet.

Past and present intertwine to make it a place imbued with magic. This place of refuge presents the ruins of a castle that legend attributes to the four Sons of Aymon.

A true temple built in honor of Roman sculpture, the lapidary museum fits perfectly into this unique and magical place.

Throughout the year, the Contemporary Art Center of Belgian Luxembourg schedules exhibitions and artistic interventions outdoors as well as in the forges office and in the René Greisch space.

Saint-Quirin Church, Buzenol

Highlight • Religious Site

It is a single nave church, which is the transformation of a chapel that already existed in 1682. In 1846 the tower was added and it became a parish. Located in the center of the village, rue de Montauban, and built in the same size and with the same materials as the other houses of Buzenol, it has rustic furnishings and the large frescoes of the ceiling give the whole a warmth and simplicity a little naive and endearing. It was completely restored externally in 1986, including a new protective plaster and the improvement of all the stone cornerstones of the land. On display in the church, a statue of Our Lady of Luxembourg from the eighteenth century, and on the high altar, a canvas from the eighteenth century representing Christ on the cross, painted by Brother Abraham Gilson, monk of Orval.
The toponym "Buzenol" could come from the root bus, busem (cow in Celtic) and ol, diminutive of ullus. Buzenol would therefore mean "little cow".

Chantemelle Village Monuments

Highlight • Monument

against the French army in the Ton and Vire valleys. The day after the battle, many wounded arrived. It is said that the son of Emperor William II, Oscar of Prussia, stayed in a beautiful residence in the village, at current number 38.
The monument at the corner of Place de l'Étang and Rue du Sart-Macré, near the school, is quite singular: the base originally included (1921) a sculpted scene depicting the eagle Germanic undermined by the Belgian lion. During the Second World War, a German soldier mutilated the bas-relief, which the inhabitants of Chantemelle preferred to leave as is since then. The attentive observer will easily guess the details of the claws, claws and wings that escaped destruction.
