There were many program items between the warm exchange that should celebrate the history and spirit of this special connection.

In order to further strengthen the cultural gang, several excursions were organized on Saturday. First, the guests visited the impressive bing cavity and the Streitburg.

With a typical Franconian snack, guests were able to enjoy the local cuisine, which offered another opportunity to exchange ideas and make new friendships.
a nourishing exchange
These links were supplemented by the commitment of the local communities and schools, which had carried out numerous student exchanges and cultural projects in the past 50 years. A special highlight was to make music together, which performed in the Le Perreux park on Sunday morning. Under the direction of Alexander Ezhelev, a performance of the national anthems, the European anthem and the peace song "Dona Nobis Pacem" was presented, which triggered great enthusiasm and applause from the present.
The celebrations were not only a way to celebrate a long -term tradition, but also to focus on the values of tolerance, friendship and mutual understanding. Mayor Royer aptly expressed this: "We are a big family together and together take a way of understanding, friendship and tolerance."
This exchange and awareness of the importance of the city twinning will continue to play an essential role in the future. The enthusiasm and commitment, which were shown by the members of the city council and the population, are a strong sign of the lively and persistent connection between Forchheim and Le Perreux. Over the years, these personal encounters have contributed to bringing the communities closer together and exchanging cultural wealth.
The 50th anniversary of this partnership is not only a reason to celebrate, but also an incentive for future generations to create similar connections and to raise their voices in this globally networked world.
