Hachiville

Hachiville (French pronunciation: [aʃivil]; Luxembourgish: Helzen, German: Helzingen) is a village in the commune of Wincrange, in northern Luxembourg.

The village's greatest fame lies in its celebrated hermitage, which is probably located on an ancient Celtic place of worship.

[3] The former commune consisted of the villages: The carved altar screen now displayed in Hachiville's baroque parish church is considered one of Luxembourg's most precious art treasures.

Originally housed in the hermitage chapel just outside the village, the piece, which appears to date from the sixteenth century, depicts scenes from the life and the passion of Christ.

[4] The hermitage chapel, Helzer Klaus, revered as a pilgrimage site in its own right, now contains a plaster copy of this original altarpiece.
