Lëtzebuerg City Museum will host ‘Melusine’s meditations’, a guided meditation session centred on the mythical figure Melusine, on 4 August at 5:30 pm. The English-language event is listed as lasting one hour and has a maximum capacity of eight participants. According to the museum’s event page, the session invites visitors to “feel the presence of Melusine” while listening to “the stories carried by water and the songs of the sirens.”

The programme frames the encounter as both a mythological and reflective experience. The museum says the meditation offers a way to meet the creature while gently exploring inner emotions. The event page places the session within the museum’s wider cultural calendar, alongside a series of summer workshops and guided tours that run through August.

The meditation will be led by Val Cielle, who is identified on the museum website as the facilitator. The page notes that Cielle is trained in monumental painting and vocal arts and brings together art and well-being in her sessions. The museum describes her practice as including meditative singing, sound relaxation and guided meditation, creating space for experiences that move between artistic contemplation and inner exploration.

Practical details on the event page make clear that the session is designed as a small-group activity. Participants are asked to arrive at 5:15 pm, and the museum requests that they bring a mat and a cushion and wear warm, comfortable clothing. Registration is required, with booking available by telephone or email through the museum’s visits office. The listed price is 10 euros, with a reduced Kulturpass rate of 1.50 euros.

The event also sits within a broader museum programme that includes activities focused on local history, making and family participation. Among the other August listings are ‘Discover the Muerbelsmillen’, a guided tour of a historic site that once operated as a mustard factory, ‘Museum Break: Summer foam prints’, a multilingual workshop for children from age three, and ‘Museum Break: Ice Cream Dream’, a workshop for children from age five.

Other scheduled events on the same calendar include ‘Museum Break: Summer wine’, an adults’ workshop featuring Esther Correia of the Luxembourg wine estate Molling Wines, and ‘A medieval walk’, a guided tour beginning at the Lëtzebuerg City Museum and continuing into Luxembourg City’s old town. The museum’s August programme also includes ‘Mon petit monde en couleurs’, a family workshop set in the ‘City Visions’ exhibition, and a guided tour called ‘Seit Baumes Gedenken’ in German and Luxembourgish.

‘Melusine’s meditations’ is listed for 4 August at 17:30, in English, at Lëtzebuerg City Museum. The session runs for one hour and is limited to eight participants.
