Lambert Joseph Emmanuel Servais (French pronunciation: [lɑ̃bɛʁ ʒozɛf emanɥɛl sɛʁvɛ]; 11 April 1811 – 17 June 1890) was a Luxembourgish politician.
Servais was educated at the Athénée de Luxembourg, where he excelled academically, finishing top of his class in both of his final years at the school.
[2] Servais used the paper to promote his political interests, particularly improving transport links, an example of which was the construction of a permanent roadway between Ettelbruck and Bastogne.
[3] The Treaty awarded two-thirds of the grand duchy to Belgium, separating Mersch from Arlon and Bastogne, and hence dividing in two Servais's backyard and the Echo's core constituency.
Primary education was regulated by the state for the first time in 1843, and the scope of the Roman Catholic Church in instruction was anathema to the radical Servais.
[6] Similarly, when the issue of secondary education was discussed, Servais argued that the Concordat of 1801 and Organic Articles were annulled by the Belgian Constitution of 1831, and so the Luxembourgish government was under no obligation to the Catholic Church.
