Luxeuil les Bains - Librairie-Papeterie

Luxeuil les Bains was known to the Romans as Luxovium. They were attracted by the more than a dozen warm springs.

In 590, the iro-scottish missionary St. Columban founded the Abbey of Luxeuil. In the 8th century, it was destroyed by the Saracens. It was rebuilt, but afterward, the monastery and town were devastated by the Normans, Magyars, and Muslims.

The abbey schools were celebrated in the Middle Ages but the abbey´s influence power was curtailed by Charles V and the abbey was suppressed at the time of the French Revolution.

In 1975 Luxeuil had a population of 10.105. In 2019 there were only 6623 inhabitants. Not enough customers for the Papiterie.
