Orval

Merl

Named after Orval Abbey.

This Cistercian abbey in the Gaume, now in Belgium, once lay in the Duchy of Luxembourg. Legend says Countess Matilda of Tuscany lost her ring in a spring here and a trout brought it back, so she called the place 'Val d'Or', golden valley. The abbey's brewery makes a famous beer.
