Franz CLÉMENT, PhD in sociology and former mayor of Martelange, continues, at an annual rhythm, the rediscovery of the old legends of Province de Luxembourg.
After having dedicated collections to the Haute-Sûre, the Forest of Anlier, Val de Salm, the Attert Valley, and South Luxembourg, he sets down his bags in what he calls the old Pays de Bastogne. By this, we mean broadly the territory covered by the current municipalities of Bastogne, Sainte-Ode, Vaux-sur-Sûre, and Fauvillers.
The author will tell us how he (re)discovered certain legendary stories, what their sources are, and what their small secrets are. He will explain the method he used to gather and write them and of course he will tell us one or another legend...
The book will be sold on site and the author will gladly sign copies. The evening will end around a drink of friendship offered by Ville de Bastogne.
Will speak on this occasion:
Michel FRANCARD, Président du Conseil of administration of the Museum of Grande Ardenne.
Thierry LEFÈVRE, Director of Memory publishing.
Benoît LUTGEN, Federal Representative and Mayor of Ville de Bastogne.
Franz CLÉMENT, Author of the work.
Sébastien PIERRE, Curator-Directeur du Musée of the Museum of Grande Ardenne.
