Direction the small village of Guirsch in the Tourism Agency, 32e village to hold the “Most beautiful village in Wallonia” label since last May. Located near Arlon, in the province of Luxembourg, the village of Guirsch is all the same the 9th Luxembourg village to integrate the network of Most Beautiful Villages of Wallonia.
One does not arrive at Guirsch by chance. This small village of 200 souls is lost on the heights of the Pays d’Arlon. You have to walk along the Guirsch-Alewée, drawn between two rows of woods, to see the dawn, one kilometer further on, of a period chapel.
Sitting on a bench, her gaze fixed on the horizon, Marie-Jeanne Nandrin, guide for the city of Arlon, is waiting for us. In front of his gaze, an exceptional panorama. A view over 15 kilometers away. “Over there, the ridge you see is the separation between the Ardennes and Lorraine“, she points with her index finger. “You can see no less than thirty villages below. It’s quite impressive.“
And that is to say the least. Especially since most of the village is not there. You have to go down a few meters. “If you remove the concrete on the ground, the electricity pylons and the cars, you are in the 18th century.“
