“Pixie Pixel” Fairy Tale Lane

To discover from November 28 in downtown Clervaux.

Clervaux invites children and adults to enjoy an enchanted walk around the brand-new pixel fairy tale “Dott”, created by Jang LINSTER. Along a lane of small cottages, each door reveals an excerpt from the story.

Guided by Pixie Pixel, a charming character created by Claire THILL and illustrated by Stina FISCH, visitors are carried through a magical story about photography, told via audio recording. Simply open each cottage door to hear the next part and immerse yourself in a moment of wonder, perfectly in line with the Cittaslow philosophy, which celebrates slowing down, quality of life, and the beauty of the present moment.

Available in four languages (LU, DE, FR, EN), this magical walk begins at Place de la Libération, passes through the pedestrian area, and climbs to the top of the Montée du Château, where the story concludes. An invitation to discover Clervaux’s new fairy tale in a gentle, poetic atmosphere.

Advent Chalets

For several days, the “Advent Chalet” will be the perfect meeting place to enjoy a drink with friends, after a walk, or after shopping for gifts. Mulled wine and other beverages, snacks, music, and entertainment will be available.
