Addendum 1: Fall hike 2024
The chapter had chosen the so-called "Minett Trail". The hike, which took place in Rumelange on October 27, 2024, was attended by 10 alumni.
Rumelange, a town in the south-west of the country, belongs to the canton of Esch on the Alzette. The town is closely linked to ironore mining, which took place from the mid-19th century until the 1980s.
One way to start the hike is at the train station in Rumelange. Here you can immediately set off in the direction of nature. You enter the Haard-Hesselsbierg-Staebierg nature reserve relatively quickly. Former mining dumps and the red of the iron ore are characteristic of the Minett Trail. The trail leads mainly through the forest.
After the hike, 3 more alumni joined the hiking group for dinner at the "Brasserie du Musée".
Addendum 2: November meeting
7 alumni attended the November meeting, which also took place at the Brasserie du Kirchberg on November 7, 2024.
Olympic rings
The Olympic rings (29 meters long, 15 meters high) that hung on the Eiffel Tower during the Olympics have been dismantled and taken to the ArcelorMittal factory in Differdange. Here they were melted down and reshaped into building beams.
Addendum 3: Soirée suisse
This year's Soirée suisse took place in Pissingen at the Pissinger Hütte. 21 alumni took part. Pisssingen is about 16.5 kilometers from Luxembourg. Raclette, meat fondue and à la carte menus were on the agenda.
