History
Excavations in and around Liverdun carried out in the 1960s revealed evidence for "fairly dense" habitation from prehistoric to Merovingian times. Notable archaeological features included a Gallo-Roman villa (destroyed in the third century A.D.) at the locality known as Rupt-Chaudron and a Merovingian necropolis of more than 1,000 tombs dating to the ninth century A.D.
