Hämmelsmarsch

The local music club will play the traditional “Hämmelsmarsch”, a kind of musical parade that heralds the start of the fun fair.

The Hämmelsmarsch is a Luxembourgish tradition: the local music association walks through the streets to invite everyone to the upcoming fair. The musicians play the song “Hämmelsmarsch“. In the past, a shepherd would lead the parade with his finest sheep, followed by the musicians.

During the Hämmelsmarsch the local music association collects donations, an important source of income for the club.
