[Luxembourg] National Day Celebrations for 2011

Sébastien, Alexandra, Guillaume, Maria-Teresa, Henri, Louis and Tessy. But where is Félix?

June 23rd is Luxembourg’s National Day and the official birthday of the Grand Duke. The day also commemorates the birth of the greatest ruler of Luxembourg, the Grand Duchess Charlotte. She was actually born on January 23, 1896, but the celebrations were shifted to June for more favorable weather.

On the eve of the National Day, a torchlight procession lights the streets starting at 10 in the evening. A spectacular fireworks display is held in the Petrusse Valley. A mass is often held at the cathedral as well. After the fireworks, the city of Luxembourg City turns into a massive party with waffles, sausages, beer, music, and dancing in the streets. On the actual National Day itself, official ceremonies, military parades, and a 101 canon salute are held.

Tessy, a princess successfully in the making


Four years after the daughter of a tiler bore one of Europe's royal princes a son out of wedlock, she is now fully ensconed in the heart of the family.

Prince Louis of Luxembourg's young wife, now styled Princess Tessy (second left) by permission of her father-in-law, Grand Duke Henri, has taken gracefully to her role as was clear at the country's national day celebrations.
The couple - who later married and had another child - were joined by Henri and Louis' mother Maria Teresa and siblings.
Notably absent was Louis' brother 24-year-old Prince Felix, who attended Princess Victoria's wedding to Daniel Westling last weekend.

Prince Louis and wife Tessy are expecting second child


EL PRÍNCIPE LUIS DE LUXEMBURGO Y SU ESPOSA, TESSY ANTHONY, ESPERAN SU SEGUNDO HIJO

La Familia Real luxemburguesa participó el domingo en las tradicionales festividades con la ocasión de la celebración de la “octava”: la veneración de Nuestra Señora de Luxemburgo. Se trata de un periodo de oración y reflexión que este año comenzó el 29 de abril y que este domingo –el quinto domingo después de Pascua- se cerró solemnemente.Primero, con una misa solemne en la catedral, consagrada a Nuestra Señora de Luxemburgo (Notre Dame du Luxembourg), en la que estuvieron presentes el gran duque Enrique y su mujer la gran duquesa María Teresa. Después, al final de la mañana, con la celebración de una procesión en honor por las calles de la capital en honor a María . En la procesión, en la que participaron miles de Luxemburgueses, la imagen de la Virgen, protectora de Luxemburgo, fue llevada desde la catedral hasta un altar cubierto de flores en la Avenue de la Porte Neuve.Tessy, embaraza y a la últimaCon la excepción del príncipe Sebastián, toda la familia de Enrique y María Teresa participaron en el evento. También, la nuevamente embarazada Tessy de Nassau, la mujer del príncipe Luis, quien en esta rara aparición “oficial” en familia aparecía, entre ellos, como una princesita más vistiendo muy apropiadamente y luciendo un sombrero a la última, al estilo de Mary Donaldson y Máxima de Holanda.La noticia sobre este segundo embarazo no se ha hecho oficial, pero sí ha puesto de nuevo de manifiesto el buen acogimiento que los Grandes duques han dado a su nuera Tessy, que pronto los convertirá en abuelos por segunda vez.Casado desde 1981 con la gran duquesa María Teresa, los Grandes duques celebraban el pasado año la llegada del medio siglo, sus bodas de plata, y su nuevo papel como abuelos de Gabriel. El bebé que nació en marzo de 2006, fue bautizado en abril –aparecía por primera vez en los brazos de una abuela orgullosísima- y asistía, con tan solo seis meses, a la boda de sus padres.
