The first Lord of Mersch was a knight and vassal, thus head of the court administra- tion of Countess Ermesinde. He built a castle in what today is the centre of Mersch. The castle was repeatedly attacked over the centuries, for example by Burgundian troops, who set it on fire. Towards the end of the 16th century, Paulus von der Veltz had the medieval castle rebuilt into a comfortable manorial abode.

It underwent a significant change in the 18th century when Bidart’s heirs were ennobled first as barons in 1728 and later as counts. The gardens were laid out in 1750.

  • Luxembourg Final Report
    JESSICA JOINT EUROPEAN SUPPORT FOR SUSTAINABLE INVESTMENT IN CITY AREAS Evaluation Study for Luxembourg Final Report April 2010 This document has been produced with the financial assistance of the European Union. The views expressed herein can in no way be taken to reflect the official opinion of the European Union. Foreword This report has been prepared on behalf of the European Investment Bank (EIB) as an evaluation study for the application of a JESSICA funding structure in Luxembourg. The report covers the five principal and two supplementary objectives outlined within the Terms of Reference. In particular, this report is intended to evaluate Nordstad as a pilot, and to consider whether it is suitable for structural funds support which could be financed through JESSICA. Areas of our study have been limited by the information available and all financial estimates are therefore based on high level assumptions. During the course of this study, a number of issues have arisen that have led to the consultancy team to consider areas outside of the original Terms of Reference. Particularly, in relation to our proposals for a new National Development Framework and the establishment of a wider Development Fund in Luxembourg. The purpose of this report is to act as a useful starting point to promote further discussion over the potential implementation of the JESSICA mechanism in Luxembourg. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS The principle conclusions from this study are as follows:- 1. There is a clear role for JESSICA in Luxembourg to form part of a Luxembourg-wide Development Fund. The JESSICA funding element would stimulate public private investment in regeneration and development schemes across the country.

  • Oppida: a Settlement Phenomenon of the Later Iron Ages of Britain and Temperate Europe: an Analysis of Colchester, Titelberg, and Canterbury
    Oppida: A Settlement Phenomenon of the later Iron Ages of Britain and Temperate Europe: An Analysis of Colchester, Titelberg, and Canterbury Volume Two The Sites: Later Iron Age Occupation at Colchester, Titelberg and Canterbury Emma Louise Jackson Classical and Archaeological Studies School of European Culture and Language Thesis Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Kent March 2017 7: Colchester The modern town of Colchester, (often referred to as Camulodunum in literature pertaining to the site’s later Iron Age, and Iron Age/Roman transitional period, occupation), has a long and vibrant history, with secure but not continuous evidence for occupation dating back to the Bronze Age (Crummy 1995b, 131-133). Flints dating to the Mesolithic and Neolithic periods have also been recovered through excavation (Brooks and Masefield 2006, 4; Brooks et al. 2007, 1); however, these are so limited in number that it is impossible to state definitively whether occupation was actually present at these times. Despite this early evidence for human activity it was not until the later Iron Age (Hawkes and Hull 1947, 5; Hawkes 1995, 4-6; Niblett 1985; 1-3) that Colchester truly became a flourishing centre of occupation. This is particularly true of the last c.50 years of the later Iron Age, (from c.15/10 BC1), when Colchester, (Figure 7.1), became one of Britain’s most significant settlements. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the archaeology associated with this period is both extensive and exciting; with, as N. Crummy rightly notes, ‘enormous research potential’ (2013, 38). Consequently, it was an ideal case study for the present thesis (see Chapter 1.2.3.1).

    Oppida: A Settlement Phenomenon of the later Iron Ages of Britain and Temperate Europe: An Analysis of Colchester, Titelberg, and Canterbury Volume Four Part 2 Appendices for Chapters 9 and 10 Emma Louise Jackson Classical and Archaeological Studies School of European Culture and Language Thesis Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Kent March 2017 Appendix 9.1 Titelberg’s Complete Ceramic Assemblage The table presented here provides an overview of the vessels comprising Titelberg’s later Iron Age ceramic assemblage. The data contained within this table was collated using the information presented in Metzler’s (1995a, 1995b) reports on the excavations conducted by Luxembourg’s National Museum of History and Art at Titelberg, and comprises details of these vessels’ forms, (recorded using the system presented within Metzler’s report as this was also utilised in the reports documenting excavations at Lamadelaine and Goeblange-Nospelt); form types, (in other words were they beakers, bowls, or platters etc.); dates of manufacture; origins, (in terms of where they were manufactured); and the number of each form present. Furthermore, these vessels are grouped within the table based on the contexts from which they were recovered (following the order in which the contexts were presented in the site report), as the site reports also contained details of Titelberg’s stratification. This table was included here to ensure that the author’s overview of the archaeology attributed to the Titelberg’s later Iron Age occupation as a whole, (see Chapter 9.1.2.2), was not burdened by raw data when its purpose was to provide a brief outline of the evidence that was to be explored later on in the chapter (Section 9.3).
