Riemst

A small Belgian town in the province of Limburg, Riemst sits among vineyards in the Flemish-speaking southeast of the country. The area carries a layered military history: the 1747 Battle of Lauffeld was fought here, and a bridge in the borough of Vroenhoven was a flashpoint at the opening of World War II. UNESCO World Heritage sites lie within the wider region.
