Ebly
Situated on the left bank of the Neufchâteau-Martelange road in the Rhine basin, Ebly offers the rich treasures of a charming little village.
The Saint Martin church
Located at the heart of the village, the church has existed since 1260 under the patronage of the monks of the Orval abbey. The building in its current form is a classic building made of roughcast shale and dating from the third quarter of the 18th century (1771?). The baptismal fonts are its most striking feature: this quadrangular Romanesque limestone basin dates from the 17th century. The baroque lateral altars date from the beginning of the 18th century whereas the main altar dates from the end of the 18th century. Colourful wooden statues of Saint Martin, Saint Ouen, Saint Barbe and a cloth hanging of Saint Martin by Brother Abraham of Orval complete the collection. The church is open during office hours only.
A haven of peace !
Ebly has numerous attractions to offer: tranquillity, clean air, a climate of extreme temperatures and green and wooded surroundings. The village of Ebly has it all: forest paths lined with majestic trees, country footpaths weaving through vast empty fields as far as the eye can see, areas bursting with plants and wildlife and little corners where you can hear the silence and smell the scent of the countryside. Painters, fishermen, beekeepers, show organisers, artists and craftsmen have all found inspiration and passion here !
