Saint Michael's Church
Saint Michael's Church (Méchelskierch, Église Saint-Michel, Sankt Michaelskirche) is a Roman Catholic church, and the oldest extant religious site, in Fishmarket, in the central Ville Haute quarter of Luxembourg City.
The first church on the spot was built in 987 as the castle chapel for the Count of Luxembourg. Over the following centuries the building was destroyed, rebuilt, and renovated several times. Its current appearance dates to 1688, and unites Romanesque and Baroque architectural styles, pre-dating the national Moselle Baroque style. The building has since been restored, preserving its original form, most recently been renovated in the 1960s, 1980s, and 2000s.
