Mamer Schlass in the colors of Rare Disease Day

As a sign of solidarity with the 30,000 or so people affected by rare diseases in Luxembourg, the Mamer Schlass was illuminated in the colors of Rare Disease Day as part of the “Global Chain of Lights” on World Rare Disease Day, February 28, 2026.

A disease is said to be rare when it affects less thanone person in 2,000. For 95% of these diseases, there is currently no effective treatment. More than ever, research is therefore essential to develop treatments and medicines for these relentless diseases.

The commune of Mamer supports Rare Disease Day and the association ALAN – Maladies Rares, which works in Luxembourg on behalf of sufferers and their families.
