On the eve of National Day, the festivities took place in Mamer in a friendly atmosphere. However, due to the extreme heat, the parade had to be canceled, and the participants gathered directly at the church for the Te Deum.
In his speech beneath the Skyliner, Mayor Luc Feller noted that National Day is a symbol of unity and diversity. He also emphasized that this was the first National Day during the reign of the new Grand Duke Guillaume, marking the beginning of a new chapter in the country’s history.
Three municipal employees were honored for their long-standing commitment to serving the municipality. Christian Jemming received the Vermeil Medal of the Oak Crown, while Tom Plune and Laurent Hansen were named Knights of the Oak Crown. As is tradition, members of the Harmonie Gemeng Mamer were also honored, and the mayor paid tribute to the deserving firefighters of CISMA.
