History

::figure[src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9d/Nospelt_Luxembourg_Eemaischen_01.jpg" caption="language=en}}"] ::

With a wide range of attractions and games, the Emaischen is particularly popular with children. There is also folk-dancing, a craft fair in the streets and food stalls.

The origins of the festival are not too clear but there may be a connection with the Biblical reference to a potter in the Book of Jeremiah, Chapter 18. In any case, there seem to have been several breaks in the tradition.
