Church of Saint Laurent, Virton

The church of Saint-Martin in Vieux-Virton can be considered the original parish of Saint-Mard. Indeed, the title Saint-Martin, its extra muros location and the chronology revealed during the excavations point to a very old church. The early church dates from the 8th century and was built of stone. In the 9th or 10th century, a second building was erected. Two carved blocks from the High Roman Empire, which can still be seen today, were used as a replacement. A third construction phase took place in the 10th-11th centuries. It was at this time that the nave was extended.

The church of Saint-Médard de Saint-Mard, built between 1862 and 1867, is a neo-Romanesque building with three naves. Inside the church, the two 17th century side altars are particularly noteworthy.

The Church of Saint-Martin stands in the heart of the citadel of Montmedy. The first mention of the church of Saint-Martin appears in a charter drawn up in 1156, by which the abbey of Orval (Belgium) obtains its patronage.
