European Archaeology Days in Luxembourg
Discover local history during this open day of archaeological exploration for all ages on 21 August 2026.
The European Archaeology Days return on 21 August 2026 across the Luxembourg region. This annual event invites the public to explore archaeological remains and learn about heritage professions through guided tours, hands-on workshops, and meetings with archaeology experts.
Belgian Gaume and neighbouring Luxembourg share a rich historical tapestry, featuring Roman, medieval, and Gallo-Roman remains. These days attract families, history enthusiasts, and heritage lovers in a friendly, educational atmosphere. Several sites open their doors especially for the occasion.
If you're staying in Gaume, combine your visit with a trip to Orval Abbey or picturesque villages like Torgny. Check the detailed programme on the Visit Luxembourg website a few weeks before the date to find participating locations and specific timings.
