Nationalmusée um FëschmaartMusical performance by Carmen Luisa20h00, 22h00 & 00h00 | Location: Level -5Carmen Luisa is a music project named after the artist's first and middle names, inherited from her maternal grandmother and great-grandmother. Rooted in her Cuban heritage and multicultural background, the artist explores a distinctive musical identity through a foundation of pop and soul, incorporating elements of jazz, orchestral pop and traditional Cuban music.
The project reflects the artist's aim to bring these influences together in a contemporary and personal sound. The debut single, Ghost(ed), was released on 20 June 2026.
For the musical performance during Museum Night, the vibrant voice of Carmen Luisa is accompanied by Ignacio Portuondo Ruiz (drums and percussion) and Willian Fernandes (keyboard). -

Nationalmusée um FëschmaartProjection mapping by Nils Friedlich19h00 – 01h00 | Location: outside, in front of the museumDuring Museum Night, 3D designer and visual artist Nils Friedlich will transform the museum’s façade into a live work of art. Immersive light projections and a soundscape especially created for the occasion will allow the visual narrative to blend with the building’s architecture.
“The philosophy behind my work is to give emotions space”, explains the 3D artist and founder of studiofriedlich. Video mapping makes it possible to tell stories, open up new worlds and transport the audience to these places. For Nils Friedlich, the interplay of image, light, sound, architecture and space is the perfect formula for creating an immersive moment in which emotions take centre stage and come to life. -
Nationalmusée um FëschmaartGuided tour of the exhibition "Vu Lilien a Linnen. Jugendstil, Handwierk a Konscht zu Lëtzebuerg"18h00 (LU) & 21h00 (LU) | Location: Level +2Art Nouveau was a style to be newly created, inspired by nature and intended as an expression of its time and modernity. By finding beauty in everyday life and returning to the expertise of traditional craftsmanship, the goal was nothing less than creating a better world. These questions were relevant for Luxembourg, where the era of Art Nouveau coincided with the founding of an art association in 1893 and the establishment of a state-run École d’Artisans in 1896, where artists and craftsmen were trained together. Through innovative works – especially from the field of applied arts – previously unseen sketches and historical photographs, the exhibition offers the first in-depth look at the Grand Duchy’s fascinating Art Nouveau period.

Nationalmusée um FëschmaartGuided tour of the exhibition "Berthe Brincour (1879-1947). Une artiste hors normes et hors temps"18h30 (LU) & 20h30 (FR) | Location: Level +4The Nationalmusée um Fëschmaart will present the first major retrospective of Luxembourgish painter Berthe Brincour (1879–1947), a notable yet overlooked figure. Nearly 80 years after she bequeathed her entire body of work to the state, much of it remains unexamined and has never been shown in full. Thanks to ongoing research and restoration, the museum now brings her expressive, modern art back into view – and secures her place in Luxembourg’s art history.

- SUSTAINABILITY

The Museum Night is committed to organising a more environmentally responsible event:
- Our communications have gone green! We print climate-neutral on recycled paper. And to further reduce our ecological footprint, the evening's programme is available exclusively online.
- Special shuttle buses! Along with free public transport, special shuttle buses will run between the seven museums throughout the evening. In addition to our beloved historic buses, we introduced 100% electric mini-buses! Take a look at our shuttle timetable. You can also use the free Night Bus services offered by multiple municipalities for a hassle-free trip back home. Further information: mobiliteit.lu
- Eat local and organic food! Discover a culinary offer that is partly local and organic, with vegetarian and vegan options.
- All reusable! This year, the museums are opting exclusively for reusable tableware and will no longer be handing out single-use gadgets.
Want to go the extra mile in supporting us? The museum shops will be open during the Museum Night. Don’t forget to bring your own bags — it’s better for the environment!
