Die Mosel während der Belgischen Revolution
Die Mosel während der Belgischen Revolution
Deze inhoud is helaas niet in het Nederlands beschikbaar.
In 1830, the Belgian Revolution broke out, and part of the population of Luxembourg adhered to its demands. Between 1830 and 1839, Luxembourg was administered by Belgium until the signing of the Treaty of London in 1839. This treaty granted Luxembourg independence within its current borders.
On November 15 at 3 p.m., Sébastien Vecchiato will highlight the history of the Belgian Revolution and its consequences for Luxembourg, focusing on the situation of the Luxembourg Moselle region. How did the Belgian Revolution impact the Moselle municipalities? What was the profile of the Mosellans who joined the revolution? Which figures remained loyal to the Orangist regime? How did the Mosellans experience the Belgian period before being reintegrated into the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg?
A discussion with the audience will follow the lecture.
Sébastien Vecchiato studied at the University of Namur and then at the University of Luxembourg, where he obtained a Master’s degree in History. He wrote his thesis on the experiences of Luxembourgers in the French Foreign Legion between 1831 and 1914. He has contributed to several historical books and journals.
