Check out our special Easter events schedule to plan your weekend and catch the most exciting things!

The Easter safari is in progress, but the weekend is the best time to participate! During the professionally guided walk, you and your children if you have them, can find unusual animals that live in Luxembourg: lions, lizards, and, of course, little péckvillchen. What are they? Look for the answer down there in the next paragraph.

Éimaischen
During the Éimaischen festival on Easter Monday, there will be a traditional market held in the center and communes. The small bird-shaped whistles made out of baked clay will be sold on the streets of Luxembourg. These whistles are called péckvillchen. You can buy them at the Fish Market, where they first emerged in 1827. There will also be numerous festivities throughout the city, so you can have fun with fellow citizens.
Address: rue Sigefroi, L-2536 Luxembourg

They are beautiful inside as well as outside.
