ST. NICHOLAS

Saint Nicholas is coming ...

When children gather at the various Christmas markets on a December evening, anticipation fills the air as they eagerly await St. Nicholas. It is always a truly magical moment when he makes his grand entrance into Innsbruck, accompanied by angels and Krampus figures. With glowing eyes, the children recite Christmas poems for him and are rewarded with sweet treats—a heartwarming tradition that brings out the child in adults, too.
