Sunday Architectural Walks: Stone, a Significant Ornament
At the turn of the 20th century, local stone was a major source of wealth for the country, both as a construction material and for export. However, the façades highlighted on this walk show the competition with two other materials: Lorraine stone and concrete. The government quickly favored national stone as a political choice. Discover the role of Luxembourgish stone in the capital's architecture around 1900.
