| Additional information |
Grand Duke Henri ascended to the throne on 7 October 2000, succeeding his father Jean following a formal act of abdication — the first in Luxembourg's modern history. This commemorative marks his 25th year of reign, a milestone that also quietly signals how thoroughly Henri has navigated the constitutional tensions of his tenure, including a 2008 crisis in which the Chamber of Deputies stripped the monarch of the power to sanction laws after Henri indicated he would refuse to sign euthanasia legislation.
