Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DIO-DRO
DOLHAIN , the most eastern town of Belgium, situated on the Vesdre, N. E. of Verviers and close to the Prussian frontier. Pop. (1904) 4757 It is quite a
modern
  town, occupying the site of the
lower
  town of the ancient city of Limburg, which was destroyed by Louis XIV. in 1675. On a rocky
eminence
  above Dolhain are still to be seen the fine ruins of the old castle of Limburg, the cradle of the ancient family of that name from which sprang the Luxemburg family and several emperors of Germany. The
Gothic
 
church
  of St George of the 13th
century
  has been restored. At a short distance from Dolhain is the"famous dam of the Gileppe, the vast reservoir constructed to
supply
  Verviers with water free from lime for its
cloth
  manufactures. The aqueduct from Gileppe to Verviers is nearly 51 m. in length.
