Visits for anniversaries

  • Service description

    On the occasion of an anniversary (80th, 85th, 90th, 95th, 100th birthday and every year thereafter), the deputy mayor or the head of the village in whose district the birthday child lives will pay a visit on request.

    The city administration will write to you in advance of a visit and ask whether your data may be given to the representatives:in the pilgrimage town of Kevelaer for the visit. If you do not wish a representative to visit you on your birthday, you have the right to object to your personal data (first name, surname, address and date of birth) being passed on. In this case, no birthday visit will be organized.

    If you do not object, an appointment will be arranged by telephone in advance of the visit. Unfortunately, not all telephone numbers are always known, so we are also dependent on your assistance or feedback to the contact person named if you would like a visit.
