The Moselle During the Belgian Revolution – A Conference by Sébastien Vecchiato
In 1830, the Belgian Revolution began, with part of the Luxembourgish population joining its demands. Between 1830 and 1839, Luxembourg was administered by Belgium until the signing of the Treaty of London in 1839, which granted Luxembourg's independence within its current borders.
On November 15 at 3:00 pm, Sébastien Vecchiato will present the history of the Belgian Revolution and its consequences for Luxembourg, with a special focus on the Moselle region. How did the revolution affect the Moselle communities? Who were the Mosellans joining the revolution, and who remained loyal to the Orangist regime? What was life like for the Mosellans during this period before their reintegration into the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg?
A public discussion will follow the conference.
Sébastien Vecchiato holds a Master's degree in History from the University of Namur and the University of Luxembourg. His thesis focused on Luxembourgers in the French Foreign Legion between 1831 and 1914. He has contributed to several historical works and journals.
