Bouillon

Bouillon is a municipality in Belgium. It lies within the usa's Walloon Region and Luxembourg Province. The municipality, which covers 149.09 km², had five,477 inhabitants, giving a population density of 36.7 population according to km². In the Middle Ages Bouillon became a lordship in the Duchy of Lower Lorraine and the most important seat of the Ardennes-Bouillon dynasty in the tenth and 11th century. In the 11th century they ruled the region, and held the ducal name in conjunction with many different titles in the place. Bouillon became the location of the ducal mint and the dominant city awareness inside the dukes' ownership.

There is a commonplace misconception that Bouillon turned into a County. While the lords of Bouillon frequently had been counts and dukes, Bouillon itself became not a county. The fortification of Bouillon Castle become, at the side of the County of Verdun, the core of the possessions of the Ardennes-Bouillon dynasty, and their blended territory changed into a complicated combination of fiefs, allodial land and other hereditary rights in the course of the location.
