LUXEMBOURG: Echternach town
Echternach, the oldest town in Luxembourg, was founded in 698 by St Willibrord, an English monk from Ripon, Northumbria (in present-day North Yorkshire, England). It lies near the border with Germany.
The picturesque town, still surrounded by its medieval walls with towers, was badly damaged in World War II and has been thoroughly restored.
There are two churches at Echternach. The larger is the Abbey's basilica of St Willibrord, now surrounded by the eighteenth-century abbey (now a school) in the town's historical and cultural centre. The other is the parish church of St Peter and Paul.

Luxemburg-Belair (L) neues Geläut der kath. Kirche Pius X.
Es erklingen die neuen Glocken der katholischen Kirche Pius X. in Belair, einem Stadtteil von Luxemburg.
Disposition: a' (h') cis'' d'' e'' fis''
Alle Glocken Bruder Michael Reuter OSB/Maria Laach, 2013
Leider war Glocke 2 (h') zum Aufnahmezeitpunkt schon wieder defekt...
Bereits im Jahr 1957, als das Gotteshaus in Belair eingeweiht worden war, wurde festgestellt, dass die Glocken im 69 Meter hohen Turm zu groß und zu schwer für das Bauwerk waren. Damals wurde entschieden, dass um mögliche Schäden zu verhindern nur die kleinste Glocke im frei stehenden Turm läuten durfte. Aber ausgerechnet diese Glocke sollte, zusammen mit Witterung und Feuchtigkeit, Schuld daran sein, dass eine Renovierung unumgänglich wurde. Ihr Läuten entsprach exakt der Eigenfrequenz des Turmes und löste Schwingungen aus, die mit der Zeit Risse im Mauerwerk verursachten. Seit dem 31. Mai 2011 war das Wahrzeichen des städtischen Vororts stumm. (Quelle: wort.lu)
Das neue sechsstimmige Geläut präsentiert sich als singfreudig und erklingt in kräftiger Laustärke vom Turm herab. Besonders schöne Instrumente sind Glocken 5 (e'') und 6 (fis''). Sie besitzen einen durchdringenden, klaren und voluminösen Klang, der fast etwas an die Zimbeln des Friedrich Wilhelm Schilling erinnert.
Mit dem neuen Geläut in den Tönen der A-Dur-Tonleiter lässt sich eine differenzierte und der Größe der Kirche angemessene Vielfalt an Läutemotiven erstellen.
Ein herzlicher Dank geht an Philipp für das Vermitteln des Kontaktes, sowie an den Herrn Pfarrer für's schöne Läuten.

Walk with Willibrord, Saturday 24 June 2017, St Laserian's Cathedral, Old Leighlin, Co. Carlow
'Walk with Willibrord' took place on Saturday 24th, June 2017, to honour the historical connection between county Carlow and Echternach, Luxembourg. St. Willibrord and his companions were trained at Rath Melsigi, in the present day Roman Catholic Parish of Tinryland and the Church of Ireland parish of Nurney, county Carlow. They embarked on their mission from Carlow in AD 690. In June, celebrations took place in both Echternach, Luxembourg and in county Carlow. The Most Reverend Denis Nulty, Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin and the Right Reverend Michael Burrows, Bishop of Cashel, Waterford, Lismore, Ferns, Ossory and Leighlin led a joint ecumenical diocesan pilgrimage from Carlow to Echternach. There they were presented with a Relic of St. Willibrord and partook in the UNESCO World Heritage Status annual ‘hopping procession’ in honour of St. Willibrord, the first known Irish group to partake in this centuries old procession. On Saturday 24th, June 2017, with visitors from Echternach, the ‘Walk with Willibrord’ was undertaken where the Relic was walked over 13 km from St Laserian’s Cathedral, Old Leighlin, Carlow oldest working building, to its permanent home in the Cathedral of the Assumption, College Street, Carlow town. The video shows the start of the walk as it leaves the grounds of St. Laserian’s Cathedral, Old Leighlin where members of the Killeshin Pipe Band lead the walk with the Relic travelling in the Carlow Civil Defence vehicle.

Hopping procession of Echternach 2019
The dancing procession of Echternach is an annual Roman Catholic dancing procession held at Echternach, in eastern Luxembourg. Echternach's is the last traditional dancing procession in Europe.
The procession is held every Whit Tuesday around the streets of the city of Echternach. It honours Willibrord, the patron saint of Luxembourg, who established the Abbey of Echternach. Willibrord was a Northumbrian missionary saint, known as the Apostle to the Frisians in the modern Netherlands. He became the first Bishop of Utrecht and died at Echternach, Luxembourg. Echternach has developed a strong tourism industry centred on the procession, which draws many thousands of tourists and pilgrims from around the world. The procession is inscribed in 2010 as hopping procession of Echternach on the UNESCO.
The event begins in the morning at the bridge over the River Sauer, with a sermon delivered by the parish priest (formerly by the abbot of the monastery). Willibrordus-Brauverein officials put together the procession, forming several dozen alternating groups of musicians and pilgrims. The procession then moves through the town streets towards the basilica, a distance of about 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi). While the musicians play the Sprangprozessioùn tune–a traditional melody, like an Irish jig, that has been handed down through the centuries–the pilgrims, in rows of four or five abreast and holding the ends of white handkerchiefs, dance or jump from left to right and thus slowly move forward. Because of the numbers of pilgrims attending, it is well after midday before the last of the dancers has reached the church. A large number of priests, nuns, and monks also accompany the procession, and there are several bishops as well. On arrival at the church, the dance is continued past the tomb of Saint Willibrord, which stands in the crypt beneath the high altar. Litanies and prayers in the Saint's honour are recited, and the event concludes with a benediction of the sacrament.

Abbey of Echternach in Echternach, Luxembourg
The Abbey of Echternach is a Benedictine monastery in the town of Echternach, in eastern Luxembourg. The Abbey was founded by St Willibrord, the patron saint of Luxembourg, in the 7th century. For three hundred years, it benefited from the patronage of a succession of rulers, and was the most powerful institution in Luxembourg.
The abbey is now a popular tourist attraction, and owes much of its modern fame to an annual dancing procession that is held every Whit Tuesday. Tens of thousands of tourists, day-trippers, pilgrims, and clergy visit Echternach to witness or participate in the traditional ceremony.
The abbey museum is situated in the vaulted cellars of the former abbey and is mainly dedicated to the Echternach scriptorium. In the Middle Ages, the scriptorium of the Echternach abbey was one of the most important in Europe. The decorative paintings in gold of the first letter of Gospels are not only outstanding works of art but are unique because of their Romanesque symbolism. The libraries of the Escorial or in Nuremberg host several of the codices painted in gold as their most valuable treasures. The most beautiful facsimile pages of the famous magnificent specimens such as the Codex Aureus Epternacensis or the Codex Aureus Escorialensis can be admired in the museum of the abbey. In a second section, the visitor will find vivid evidence of the work of St. Willibrord, his time and his origin. The beauty of the rooms and the quality of the exhibits and audiovisual presentations give a visit to the abbey museum a memorable character.

Im 7. Jh. gegründet, durch den Wandermönch Willibrord, kann die Reichsabtei auf eine lange und bewegte Geschichte zurückblicken. Einige Zerstörungen und der Verfall im 19. Jh. sowie der neoromanische Aufbau im selben Jh. prägten das heutige Aussehen. Nach schweren Zerstörungen und Sprengungen im zweiten Weltkrieg konnte die Basilika nach den Vorbild des romanischen Originals wieder aufgebaut und 1953 geweiht werden. Den Titel päpstliche Basilica Minor trägt die Basilika seit 1939.
Die Orgel der Kirche wurde 1953 von Klais aus Bonn errichtet und 1991 von der gleichnamigen Firma erweitert. Das Instrument hat 74 Register auf 4 Manualen und Pedal und kann sich somit zu den recht großen Instrumenten zählen.
Ein großes Dankeschön geht an den Herrn Dekan für das Ermöglichen der Aufnahmen im Turm und die Ausnahmen in der Läuteordnung, sowie das schöne Ein- und Ausschalten. Ebenfalls geht ein Dank an Philipp für die Übermittlung des Kontaktes!
