Luxembourg
At the turn of the 20th century, local stone was a source of great wealth for the country, used as a construction material and as an export product. During this walking tour, the facades of the capital highlighted show the confrontation with two strong competitors: stone from Lorraine and concrete. National preference soon became a political issue. Discover the importance of Luxembourgish stone in the architecture of the capital around 1900.
