Hiking
This former Cistercian monastery located near Arlon, Belgium, was founded in 1247 by Ermesinde of Luxembourg. The abbey was the burial place of the Counts of Luxembourg until it was destroyed by the French Revolution in 1794. You can explore the ruins of the abbey and the Notre-Dame de Clairefontaine chapel, built in the 19th century on the site of the miraculous spring blessed by Saint Bernard.
