Villers-la-Ville: Five Sections Around the Cistercian Abbey
With 11,059 inhabitants (2025) over 48.03 km², Villers-la-Ville is a French-speaking municipality of Walloon Brabant. It comprises five sections: Villers-la-Ville, Marbais, Mellery, Sart-Dames-Avelines and Tilly. The landscape alternates “fields on one side and woods on the other”, crossed by the Thyle river and railway line 140.
Villers Abbey, Cistercian jewel
The town’s identity is shaped by its Cistercian abbey, “progressively erected by monks from Clairvaux starting 1146”. The abbey became “the largest landowner in Brabant, possessing over 10,000 hectares”. After the French Revolution, it was pillaged in 1794 and sold publicly in 1797. The site received heritage protection in 1972. The ruins represent “one of the most prestigious testimonies of Cistercian monastic life”.
Religious heritage
Beyond the abbey ruins, the commune counts:
- Church of Notre-Dame de la Visitation (rebuilt 1925)
- Several historic chapels dating from the 17th-18th centuries
