SAINT HUBERT BASILICA
The story of Saint Hubert is that when he was hunting in the Ardenne forest, he saw a majestic stag with a crucifix floating over its head, between the antlers. He then heard a voice that instructed him to seek the Lord and lead a holy life.
The town is named in commemoration of Saint Hubert, whose body was moved in 825 to the Benedictine Abbey of Andage, thereafter called Abbey of Saint-Hubert.
