Note
"Kermesse, or kermis, or kirmess, is a Dutch language term derived from ´kerk´ (church) and ´mis´ (mass) that became borrowed in English, French, Spanish and many other languages, originally denoting the mass said on the anniversary of the foundation of a church (or the parish) and in honour of the patron. Such celebrations were regularly held in the Low Countries, in Central Europe and also in northern France, and were accompanied by feasting, dancing and sports of all kinds.[citation needed] The church ale was an English equivalent." - (en.wikipedia.org 03.11.2019)
