The Villa Rother, named after the last owners of the "Obermosel Dachschiefer- und Plattenwerke" slate quarry, will open its doors to the public in June 2026. Restored and renovated with the utmost care, it allows visitors to the Slate Museum to discover the history of the building, the lives of the Rother family and Nic. Molitor, a photographer passionate about everyday life in Bigonville and its other surrounding villages in the Ardennes. The exhibition is spread over five rooms of the former villa. It aims to provide an overview of the photographic legacy of this passionate, sociable bon vivant, who quickly became friends with August Rother, the owner of the Haut-Martelange slate quarries. Their shared passions for hunting, cars and travel are just some of the themes explored during the visit.
