Servais Lahage Mural
Highlight • Monument
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.

Old Buzenol Railway Station
Highlight • Monument
It was decommissioned in 1938. The abolition of the line followed a good ten years later, in 1951.
It was converted into a nature center thanks to a professor from Ghent, Doctor Van Oye, a nature enthusiast, who rented the building to the SNCB.
In the 1960s, it developed to become the Center de Buzenol, an educational service of the Royal Institute of Natural Sciences of Belgium, under the leadership of Edmond Fouss, promoter of Gaume heritage and founder of the Gaume Museum in Virton .
This project even gained momentum thanks to the former mayor of Ethe Elie Deworme in the years that followed. A new building was built between the old station and the Farm of Bâr to allow the accommodation of green classes.
Currently, this center is incorporated into the educational structure of the Ecole Normale de Virton.

Rabais Valley Lake
Highlight • Lake
Don't miss the trail of dreams, the fairy hole, or the Bonlieu chapel.
By road bike it is an essential crossing point for traveling through Gaume, in particular the villages of Orval, Torgny, Montauban. without forgetting incursions into Meurthe-et-Moselle in France.

Canadian Totem Pole in Virton
Highlight • Monument
The Canadian period was deeply affecting the lives of the residents of Virton, and such strong bonds of friendship were forged that a celebration was organized for their departure on March 11, 1967. The totem from Canada that they presented to Virton and Longuyon in France was a special sign of recognition and gratitude for the excellent way in which the residents had welcomed the Canadians. This gesture has special significance, as totems held a deeper meaning among Native Americans. In 1992, the original totem, which had been severely damaged, was recreated identically by Claude Goffinet and inaugurated on October 30th.

Brasserie and Restaurant des Trévires
Highlight • Restaurant
This is a stone's throw from the very beautiful village of Torgny, a typical Provençal style village, with its red tile roofs. One of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia.
A great place to come and visit Gaume.
