European Archaeology Days in Luxembourg
Discover the region's ancient past during this day of archaeological exploration open to everyone.
On 22 August 2026, the European Archaeology Days return to Luxembourg to unveil the region's buried treasures. This cross-border initiative invites the public to meet archaeologists, visit excavation sites and explore the behind-the-scenes world of this science that brings our ancestors to life.
Gaume and neighbouring Luxembourg share a remarkable archaeological heritage, from Gallo-Roman remains to medieval fortifications. These days offer a chance to understand how these discoveries illuminate our daily lives and shape our regional identity. Families, history enthusiasts and curious minds alike will find something to enjoy through activities suited to all ages.
Make the most of your gîte stay by combining this cultural outing with a stroll through characterful villages like Torgny or a visit to Orval Abbey. Remember to check the official website for participating sites and opening times before setting out.
