‘Carlow Hops to Luxembourg’, is a documentary that traces the journey of a pilgrimage group, mainly from Carlow, who travel to Luxembourg to take part in the annual Hopping Procession in honour of Saint Willibrord, Patron Saint of Luxembourg.
They return with a relic of St Willibrord, who spent 12 years studying in Carlow in 678AD, and which now resides on permanent display in the Cathedral of the Assumption Carlow.
Produced by Monica Hayes for KCLR, made with the support of Broadcasting Authority of Ireland through the television license fee, and Carlow County Council.
