We were created mid 18th century, in 1843,&nbsp; and since then, we have been singing songs to\namuse people in the street and&nbsp; collecting\nmoney for the poor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The happy Molons perform concerts on an enormous cart in our colourful costume and we sing songs in French or in our Walloon dialect. We play traditional instruments but we also blow in very strange ones like customized kazoos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our word is\n\u00ab&nbsp;Pleasure and Charity&nbsp;\u00bb . You can see it on the shield situated on\nour chest. It means that we sing and give pleasure to the audience and&nbsp;;\nby collecting money in our money box&nbsp;; we help people in need. We never\ngive money but pay bills or buy food for them. We do that in a hidden way . We\nsay that \u00ab&nbsp;what the left hand gives, the right hand may not know&nbsp;\u00bb. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing about the Molons is that they tell funny lies or jokes, to make people laugh, of course. They organize challenges to find out the best funny liar of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Would you like to know much more about us&nbsp;? There\u2019s no problem. If you visit Namur or the neighbourhood with a group and want to visit our office full of strange instruments and a presentation in your language, don\u2019t hesitate to contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/uaffugs.cluster028.hosting.ovh.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Quebec.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-245\" width=\"389\" height=\"525\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.royalemoncrabeau.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Quebec.jpg 711w, http:\/\/www.royalemoncrabeau.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Quebec-222x300.jpg 222w, http:\/\/www.royalemoncrabeau.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Quebec-111x150.jpg 111w, http:\/\/www.royalemoncrabeau.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Quebec-18x24.jpg 18w, http:\/\/www.royalemoncrabeau.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Quebec-27x36.jpg 27w, http:\/\/www.royalemoncrabeau.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Quebec-36x48.jpg 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 389px) 100vw, 389px\" \/><figcaption>The Molons in Quebec<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Claude Dellisse<br>Responsible for Culture and Youth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"mailto:ce.dellisse@yahoo.fr\">ce.dellisse@yahoo.fr<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everybody&nbsp;!
