IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE ROMANS à LUTTANGE

Emmanuel Stourm 2021 Ancien lavoir de Luttange

This route combines nature and history. To the east, the route runs for several kilometres through the forest, offering a pleasant walk in the shade of the trees.
To the north of Luttange, there are many traces of history. In an open landscape, you will walk along two historical routes. One was used in the Middle Ages by monks, the other is an ancient Roman secondary road. The latter linked two major axes of the Roman road network that once criss-crossed the entire region. You will also pass near Terlange, a disappeared village mentioned in writings in 968.

Although it cannot be visited, the castle of Luttange is worth a visit. Located at a strategic point, it dominated the Moselle valley. The keep and the north-west, south-west and south-east towers date from the 14th century; the castle belonged to the Luttange family. In the 15th century, its new owners, the de Perpignant family, added an oval tower in front of the keep.
