"Roses connect Cultures"

10 to 13 August 2012

The centre of Lottum, in the north of Limburg, will be the scenery again for the Rose Festival 2012, from the 10th till the 13th of August. The theme of the Rose Festival in 2012 is ‘’Roses connect cultures’’. Visit the cosy market square, admire the beautifully decorated church and take a walk along the romantic ‘Kasteellaan’, alongside lots of rose mosaics to the enchanting castle ‘De Borggraaf’. Through a walk of three kilometres long, the trip will take you to the river Maas, where an impressive field is decorated in a rose atmosphere. In the evening the whole festival site is lit and the beauty of all the creations will be emphasized. And above all, the festival visitors can enjoy live music while having a drink and a snack. 

Floriade
During the Rose Festival, the Floriade also takes place in Northern Limburg. The choice of the theme is a reference to the Floriade, with which the ‘Stichting Rozendorp Lottum’  collaborates. Visit Lottum during the Rose Festival 2012 to taste various cultures in a rose-like atmosphere.
