Durbuy is a historic town in eastern Belgium, in the Ardennes region. Although it has fewer than 500 inhabitants, Durbuy nevertheless has city status. Indeed, it's actually the "smallest city in the world", and was first granted this status by a city charter which it received during the Middle Ages. The document remains in force to this day, and Durbuy is still a charming city to discover with Engel & Völkers.
