Dancing Pilgrims of Echternach Carnival Recalled
The Echternach spring procession in Luxemburg features 19000 to 10000 pilgrims dancing for four to five hours in a sacred polka as St Willibrord’s shrine path from blessing to shrine. Emperors and kings once forbade the saints dance yet the rite endures as a symbol of faith. The procession traces back to King Lothaire and the Black Forest frontier, a centuries old plea for freedom and salvation through ritual steps.
