Further east, the town of Echternach is particularly well known for its religious dancing procession, which takes place annually on Whit Tuesday and attracts pilgrims from all over the world. The town’s Benedectine Abbey (which was founded in the seventh century by St Willibrord and now also houses a museum) and, in particular, the St Willibrord Basilica (with its crypt as a centerpiece) are well worth visiting. Echternach also has a distinctive 15th-century Town Hall overlooking the market square.
