TOUGH POPULATION, BLUESTONE, AND GOLD FEVER St. Vith – a city marked by history, almost completely destroyed in World War II. Here you will learn all about the carpet bombing and the survival will of the St. Vith residents. In Recht, you will encounter the unique bluestone; in Rodt, we have an interview appointment with a centuries-old beech tree, and beware: along the river Amel, there’s gold fever. It’s contagious!
