History of Belgian Limburg

Limburg is crossed by the Albert Canal, and has historically been a major coal-mining area. Most of Limburg was included in the prince-bishopric of Liège until 1792, and was part of the Dutch province of Limburg from 1815-1839.

 History of Tongeren
Atuatuca : provincial town in Gallia Belgica, modern Tongeren.
 Servatius (†384)  -  former bishop of Tongeren,
Servatius was the first bishop of Tongeren, the capital of the Tungri in the east of what is now called Belgium . In the fourth century, it belonged to a province of the Roman empire called Germania Secunda. In those days, Christianity was quickly gaining ground. In 311, the emperor Galerius had put an end to the great persecutions, and another emperor, Constantine, actually favored the Church.
