Yesterday we were visited by St. Nicholas. The pilgrimage is an old winter house, which is home in the entire Alpine region, where young boys on the eve of St. Anthony’s Day. Nikola, on the 5th of December, turns every year to Parks, where accompanied by Sv. The Nicholas are on the streets and villages of the village. They move from house to house, where children, girls and elderly villagers visit. They represent good spirits, who with their rampage are chasing evil winter spirits from people, houses and the whole village.

Was very interesting to read about St. Nicholas, great post!!!
In Russia, you are not visited by St. Nicholas?
As much as I know, we aren’t.
He visits you grandfather frost dear friend
Lovely post, glad to read it and learn, nice subject.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comments dear Pamela
That is a wonderful kindness, my friend. We don’t have that kind of thing in my country.
This is a really nice custom, which is most enjoyable for me
I live in India. I never heard of saint nicholos in our locality or community.
Thank you for viewing and commenting-how different we are. For us this is a great event for children, because St. Nicholas brings gifts
I’m sure every child enjoying the moments so much with full of joy
so beautiful… I love it when people post about something like this. Did you whisper to him your Christmas wish?
Thank you verry much friend-he’s already carrying gifts … has nothing to do with Santa
Is that Krampus with him?
My friend really does not know what Krampus means
the two fellows with him, the ones that scare bad children, they’re both two guys dressed up as the same character. Who is it they’re dressed as?
We call them devils…some older children from the village are dressed
with his dark skin and long tongue, he looks a lot like the pictures of Krampus I’ve seen. I expect they all share a common root
I also got a visit St. Nicholas
Did you visit him? You brought something … you were good
Different traditions, customs and faith in different nations.
Catholics and Orthodox Christians came from one religion, but they were divided.
And now we have different interpretations, different dates for the celebration of church holidays. Saint Nikola is our saint and always falls on December 19th in the new calendar.
Protector of seafarers.
It seems that we celebrate the only level of the year on the same day of January 1. There are Chinese and some may be other people.
AU I write a novel.
Done, bye.
It’s nice to write this dear friend. What can we do that is just … you’re celebrating another Christmas and New Year’s Eve
What a special event my friend.
But you do not have this holiday my dear friend
It sounds like a very eventful time to have such a visitor.
This is very fun and interesting for children
In my place we are visited by Saint Lucy the 13th december
Oh really? Really interesting how different we are celebrating
If only I could meet Saint Nicholos in our family.
And you are not visited by St. Nicholas? Where you live?
