Procession, mass and riders: St. Hubertus

Posted on by Dafydd ab Iago
On Sunday, Oct. 27, the Brotherhood of Saint Hubert commemorated its patron saint in Tervuren. One of the legends holds that he died in Tervuren. And that during his lifetime he owned a piece of land in Tervuren. Obviously the 17th-century Saint Hubert Chapel in the Warande Park and the foundation of the Brotherhood of Saint Hubert in 1605 point to a long history of connection with Tervuren, says the Brotherhood of Saint Hubert.
