RBL Herford - Remembrance Sunday 2026

Remembrance Sunday 2026 - For the first time in 13 years, the Royal British Legion Herford Branch once again held a formal Remembrance parade. On Sunday 8th November around 100 invited guests, among them Mayor Anke Theisen and representatives from politics and local government, gathered at the memorial cross in the Ewiger Frieden cemetery. Led by a piper, veterans and members of the Legion marched with dignity to the cross, where they were welcomed by the Branch Chairman. After prayers, addresses and Reveille played by the piper, the solemn wreath-laying followed, together with the British and German national anthems. The day concluded with a buffet lunch and raffle in support of the Poppy Appeal. A solemn occasion to honour and remember those who have fallen in service of their country.
