L'Ermitage de Saint-Walfroy

In around 565, Deacon Walfroy set up home on the top of the hill that now bears his name. His aim was to convert the pagan population of Trier, who worshipped the goddess Arduinna, to Christianity. Saint-Walfroy thus became a place of pilgrimage and a church was built on the site. The church was destroyed completely in 1944 but was rebuilt in 1957, on the foundations of the original building from the 6th Century. Its stained glass windows are the work of Pierre Gaudin, a mosaic artist and master glazier from a long line of master craftsmen.
