Lëtzebuerg City MuseumWorkshop: Initials in the Middle Ages - Create your own bookmark17h00-00h00 (LU, EN, FR, DE) | Location: Espace pédagogique (Level 3)In this creative workshop, children and adults discover medieval writing and make a personalised bookmark. Each person traces the first letter of their name onto tracing paper and decorates it with colours and motifs inspired by the Middle Ages. The workshop offers a simple and fun way to explore medieval writing. Everyone can use their imagination and take their own creation home.

Lëtzebuerg City MuseumWorkshop: Your Luxembourg as a Giant Puzzle17h00-01h00 (LU, EN, FR, DE) | Location: Creative Studio (Level 5)What does Luxembourg look like through your eyes? Let your imagination run wild and create your own “City Vision”! Draw your neighbourhood, your home, your school, your favourite place… or invent a completely new Luxembourg. Then add your creation to a giant collective puzzle! Little by little, the drawings will come together to create a unique city and country, imagined collectively by the museum’s visitors. A creative, collaborative and participatory workshop for young and old alike.

Lëtzebuerg City MuseumPerformance: Lëtzebuerg City Museum "SING ALONG!" with Tanja Duprez & Nadja Prange19h30, 21h00 & 22h30 | Location: Level 0As part of the Nuit des Musées, visitors will have the opportunity to cross the line and switch from whispering to singing at the Lëtzebuerg City Museum. Accompanied by piano, the audience will sing in a warm atmosphere the best songs from a wide repertoire.
The musicians Tanja Duprez (vocals) and Nadja Prange (piano/vocals) have been performing on stage together for over a decade, whether as part of the cover band the Noisemakers or as part of the music group Nea Lone (organ pop). Enough time, therefore, to harmonise perfectly with each other and create an atmosphere in which both the musicians and the audience feel at ease right from the start.

- 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!
- SAY CHEESE !

Photos and videos of the activities and audience may be taken throughout the event. They will then be used across different channels for communication purposes. If you do not wish for your children or yourself to appear on these photos, please make this known at the information desk.
