Hermits and hermitages of South Luxembourg by Christian MOÏS
In collaboration with the Messancy-Aubange History Circle and the City of Aubange. Since the Middle Ages to today, but particularly in the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly pious individuals wished to withdraw from the world to pray and offer their lives to God. These are the hermits (or eremites) who built a modest dwelling away from any village. They nevertheless had to practice a trade and adhere to the rule of their order. We will study their lifestyle and their hermitages. Many hermitages are known throughout the Duchy of Luxembourg, but we will focus more particularly on those in the south of the province and along the French border.
