For this house of God, Saint Willibrord was chosen as the patron. He was a very important missionary at the turn of the 7th to the 8th century, was born and educated in England, and evangelized the Frisians on papal and royal orders. Finally, he founded the monastery in Echternach, of which he became abbot, and where he is also buried (for those interested, see => https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/422067 ). The feast day of Saint Willibrord in the calendar of saints is on November 7th.

The Mergellander owes its name to a type of soil, marl. This chalky subsoil is found in the "marl region" in eastern Belgian Limburg, northern Liège, and southern Dutch Limburg. The Mergellander was still common on these barren chalk grasslands at the beginning of this century. The sheep provided farmers with wool, meat, and especially manure to fertilize the poor soil. The breed was primarily displaced by the use of artificial fertilizers. This made them redundant as a fertilizer source and they disappeared from the scene, making way for more productive breeds. The Mergellander's continued existence is largely due to the Dutch association "Oos Mergeland Sjaop." The Mergellander is a medium-sized sheep with a high-headed appearance; this gives it a proud appearance. The animals have a coat of long, wavy, creamy-white to yellowish wool. A peculiarity of the Mergellander's wool is that it does not shrink when washed. The skin of the head and legs is off-white, usually flecked with black and brown. Completely black Mergellanders also occur. The ewes generally lamb without problems and give birth to an average of two lambs.
