Excerpt: Mamer (preferred pronunciation ) is a commune and town in south-western Luxembourg. It is located 7 km (4.5 miles) west of Luxembourg City. The commune includes the town of Mamer, and also the smaller communities of Capellen and Holzem. Mamer is situated on the river Mamer, a tributary of the Alzette. The A6 motorway from Luxembourg to Brussels, also designated European route E25, runs through Mamer. As of 2005, the town of Mamer, which lies in the east of the commune, has a population of 5,047. The town is the thirteenth-largest in Luxembourg. The commune as a whole is the fourteenth-most populous in the country. Ruins of the Gallo-Roman bathsThe Treveri, a Gallic or Celtic tribe, inhabited the region for several hundred years until they were conquered by Julius Caesar in 54 BC. A Celtic necropolis from the 1st century was discovered in the early 1970s on the Juckelsboesch plateau between Mamer and Kehlen. A beautiful dark blue glass bowl was among the offerings found in the tombs. During the Gallo-Roman era which lasted until about 450, the Romans built and maintained a number of roads in the area including the Kiem (Latin caminus, road) linking Trier to Reims through what is now Mamer. Mambra was a Roman vicus centred around a villa with thermal baths, sited on the banks of the Mamer River at the eastern end of today s Mamer. The Roman settlement was burnt by Germanic invaders around 276. Statue of Nicolaus Mameranus, MamerThe oldest historical reference to Mamer is to be found in a document which records how, on 8 April 960, Lutgardis, daughter of Wigeric, Count Palatine, made a gift of the hamlet of Mambra to Saint Maximin s Abbey in Trier for the benefit of the monks. Nicolaus Mameranus was born in Mamer in 1500. A soldier and historian under Charles V, he succeeded in having the Emperor pay for the restoration of the village of Mamer after the Duke of Orleans' troops pillaged it in 1543. In 1555, he was appointed poet laureate. The road linking Luxembourg Cit
