September sketch meeting: Hämmelsmarsch

It's the time of the year of the Schueberfouer, the annual Luxembourg city fair with a history since 1340. Did you know that traditionally, the village fairs in Luxembourg are opened by a Hämmelsmarsch, the local musicians parading the streets, originally led by a shepherd with his sheep?  

This tradition is visible in the Hämmelsmarsch fountain on the Grande Rue/Rue Genistre corner in Luxembourg city center, on the Um roude Pëtz square. This fountain was recently renovated and put back in mint condition.



Let's meet there for our September sketch meeting!

When: 1 September at 14:00

Where: Meeting at the fountain Hämmelsmarsch, corner of Grande Rue/Rue Genistre in Luxembourg city center, Ville Haute.


Everyone welcome to join us for an afternoon of sketching!
