On the initiative of the city council a Monument will be built as a credence for the patriotic attitude of the population. Spontaneous donations assured the necessary amount and the Monument was created according to the concept of Henri Luja. Four weapon shields, forged I bronze, as well as an inscription from Nik Welter decorate the support. This Monument was never inaugurated, because in September 1939 the 2nd World war started. By order of the Commander Gustaf Simon this Monument was demolished. The still existing pillar stump is a reminder of the former monument. <\/p>\n After the war, the Mersch town council decided to erect a new monument.

This oak, which stands on a rock known as ‘Kuckelee’, is considered to be a natural bonsai tree. It’s almost a miracle that its roots have found enough nutrients to grow so slowly. As far back as 1907, forestry inspector Mr Faber described this oak tree. <\/p>\n The \u201c*High Beech of Rollingen\u201d was described by Mr. Faber. In the forest named \u201cAlheck*, this beech, with a height of 40 meters, rises above everting else. On breast height, the straight trunk has a diameter of 97 cm. <\/p>\n In the garden of the \u201cCenter National de Literature\u201d of the Servais house stands a tremendous \u201cCopper Beech\u201d, this Beech can be more that 150 years old.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”|||on|||||” header_text_align=”center” header_2_font=”|||on|||||” header_2_text_align=”center” custom_css_free_form=”h2 {|| font-family: Atkinson Hyperlegible Regular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;|| font-weight: 200;||}||||h1 {|| font-family: Atkinson Hyperlegible Bold,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;|| font-weight: 600;|| font-size:1.5rem;||}||||p {|| color: #bdc230;|||| font-size: 1rem;|| line-height: 1.75rem;|| margin-top: 1rem;||}” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text ul_type=”none” _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#d2d834″ text_orientation=”center” max_width=”48rem” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The Geographical Centre of the country is located to the north-west of Pettingen, in the “P\u00ebttenerbesch” nature reserve.<\/p>\n In 2011, this place has been marked with 4 triangular steel plates, which show the 4 compass directions.
