Ettelbruck, H.v.Landewyck

On the left, a human face appears with a small bird perched on the cap, representing trust and coexistence. On the right, a vibrantly colored toucan gazes toward the scene, creating a silent dialogue between human and animal. The intertwining shapes and bright tones immerse the viewer in a poetic, contemplative world. Through this vibrant composition, the mural pays tribute to the songbirds of spring and summer, inviting to slow down, observe, and cherish the simple beauty of the natural world.

Ettelbrück, whose name comes from the Celtic language, is located in the south of the Éislek. In addition to an impressive cultural center, the town is also home to the General Patton Museum. This is dedicated to an American officer who is considered a war hero in Ettelbruck. The Auto-Pédestre starts near the cemetery. It goes uphill along the Ditgesbaach stream to the place where the outward and return routes meet. Now it goes downhill, around the Léibierg to the district of Knupp. Now the path leads uphill into the shady forest to reach its easternmost point. After a short up and down, the path leads you back to your starting point.

This hike can very well be combined with a visit to Haff Ditgesbach, an organic farm with a shop selling food products as well as handmade items such as candles. The 3 km long nature adventure trail leads through a varied environment with hedges, orchards, small streams and an old limestone quarry. Ten educational stations, many of them interactive, convey the importance of these habitats for humans and nature. A special highlight is the viewing platform in an old apple tree. Accompanied by comic figures such as Yuppi and the bee Amelie, the path is especially suitable for families. All information boards are available in five languages. The circular route is publicly accessible and ideal for a short green break.

Football goes beyond sport: it represents a community, a place of learning and mentorship, and a club that trains youth while bringing together multiple generations around a shared passion. The mural illustrates this dynamic: the journey of young players, the diversity of backgrounds, the suspense of each action, and the energy of the supporters. The project is carried by the blue colors, the players, and the engaged fans.
