If you see children with lanterns on the side of the road, singing
“Léiwer Härrgottsblieschen…” it can only mean one thing: It is
Liichtmëssdag! The kids’ mission is to bring you light in exchange for
some sweets!
Liichtmëssdag takes place each year on 2nd February.
Grown-ups: Please look out for the children and don’t forget to make pancakes for them when they come home, because this too is a tradition on the second day of the second month of the year!
