CLERVAUX (clara vallis)

This article appears in Volume V06, Page 500 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CHR-CLI
CLERVAUX (clara vallis) , a town in the northern province of Oesling, grand-duchy of Luxemburg, on the Clerf, a tributary of the Sure. Pop. (19o5) 866. In old days it was the
fief
  of the de
Lannoy
  family, and the present proprietor is the bearer of a name not less well known in Belgian history, the
count
  de Berlaymont. The old
castle
  of the de Lannoys exists, and might easily be restored, but its
condition
  is now neglected and dilapidated. In 1798 the
people
  of Clervaux specially distinguished themselves against the
French
  in an attempt to resist the institution of the conscription. The survivors of what was called the Kloppel-krieg (the " cudgel war ") were shot, and a fine
monument
  commemorates the heroism of the men of Clervaux.
