Allerborn Bonfire Festival

Buergbrennen

Allerborn, Luxembourg

Feb 21, 2026ExpectedSource

Each year, after carnival, the village of Allerborn raises and burns a great wooden cross for the Buergbrennen. A children's torchlight procession leads to the lighting of the Buerg, in a celebration of the Luxembourgish winter-burning custom that drives out the cold season.

Media proof note

The Allerborn Bonfire Festival record is date-tracked, but stronger reviewed Field Guide media would make it easier to inspect.
