Forget Santa - Meet the Christkind!
HAVE GERMAN WILL TRAVEL WEIHNACHTEN ,,Bei uns ist immer was los!" CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION CUSTOMS/ WEIHNACHTSFEIERBRA.UCHE bringer of gifts: der Gabenbringer, die Gabenbringer Christ child: das Christkind Forget Santa - Meet the Christkind! Today I'm going to tell you about a German Christmas tradition that I remember very fondly from my childhood. It's not something celebrated in the UK, but it's popular in Germany, and I think it makes Christmas really magical for children (even moreso than Santa does). I'm going to tell you about the Christkind. The Christkind (sometimes known affectionately as Christkindl} is a traditional giver of gifts at Christmas time, mainly in European countries including Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Liechtenstein, Hungary, Slovakia and Switzerland. The word Christkind translates to 'Christ Child'. The Christkind is depicted as an angelic figure with blond hair and wings. Vintage Christmas postcards like these ones capture the magical feeling of the Christkind perfectly: What does the Christkind do? This is all very, very exciting if you are a child! The Christkind brings children their Geschenke (presents} on December 24th and leaves them underneath the Weihnachtsbaum (Christmas tree). Parents tell their children that the Christkind won't come if they try to spot him. He is not meant to be seen! Sometimes parents will secretly ring a bell to announce the arrival or departure of the Christkind, after which the children go running to find their presents. I remember my parents doing this when I was very young: On Christmas eve one year, our doorbell rang, and I went running to open it in hope of seeing the Christkind, but when I opened it, all I found were a collection of presents on the doormat! Because my parents were in the living room at the time, I was convinced it was the Christkind who had brought us the presents.

Santa Claus (also known as Saint Nicholas, Saint Nick, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, Santy or simply Santa) is a folklore figure in various cultures who distributes gifts to children, normally on Christmas Eve . Each name is a variation of Saint Nicholas , but refers to Santa Claus. In today's North American, European and worldwide celebration of Christmas, people young and old simply refer to the hero of the season as Santa , or Santa Claus. (Wikipedia) Conventionally, Santa Claus is portrayed as a kindly, round-bellied, merry, bespectacled white man in a red coat trimmed with white fur, with a long white beard . On Christmas Eve, he rides in his sleigh pulled by flying reindeer from house to house to give presents to children. To enter the house, Santa Claus comes down the chimney and exits through the fireplace . During the rest of the year he lives together with his wife Mrs. Claus and his elves manufacturing toys . Some modern depictions of Santa (often in advertising and popular entertainment) will show the elves and Santa's workshop as more of a processing and distribution facility, ordering and receiving the toys from various toy manufacturers from across the world.

Christmas Tradition in Germany______Duration 3’21’’
Christmas tradition in Germany__________________ Duration 3’21’’ author: Birgitt Roßhirt camera: archive cut: Ursula Engel producer: Bayerischer Rundfunk Music: “Stille Nacht” – Hans Haider “Vom Himmel hoch” – Hans Haider “Oh Tannenbaum” – Harfenweihnacht – Hubert Pfluger “Kommet Ihr Hirten” – Windsbacher Knabenchor Text: Normally there is not so much singing. However, when Advent time comes, the four weeks to Christmas Eve, people get themselves in the right mood for the most important feast of the year by singing carols: Christmas time from 24th to 26th December. The moments of silent reflection, taking stock and anticipation are short. For Advent is also the most exhausting time of the year. All kinds of things have to be done, Christmas biscuits baking for example, little work of arts made of sweet dough. This is more work. Just like the garland of evergreens with the four candles to increase the anticipation of Christmas. Every Sunday in Advent one more candle is lit and on the fourth Advent Sunday, all four candles are burning - and Christmas Eve is near. The bright lights everywhere show the anticipation of the Nativity of Christ. To make things easier many Germans go without real candles and instead use electric lights. Those who like traditions put up a crib that depicts the nativity scene. The necessary Christmas decoration can only be bought in a specialist shop in the Bavarian town of Rothenburg upon Tauber during the whole year – a real tourist attraction. Otherwise you can buy the appropriate decoration in shops and at Christmas fairs during the pre-Christmas period. The best-known Christmas fair is the „Nuremberg Christkindlesmarkt” which the Nuremberg Christkind opens at the beginning of December.

Just a Normal Childhood
THE FORMATIVE YEARS Just a normal childhood In post-war Germany Neuss celebrated 2000 years in 1984 Post war Germany Family Vom Samstag, 6. Januar bis zum Dienstag, 9. Januar 2018 ziehen die Ministranten und Kinder als Heilige Drei Könige von Haus zu Haus. Wir bringen den Menschen den Segen nach Hause. Kaspar Melchior Balthasar . Sternsingen Fastnacht und Fasching • 1. Alemannische Fastnacht Unsere Vorfahren, die alten Germanen, feierten im Frühling ein wildes Fest um die bösen Wintergeister zu vertreiben und somit die kalte Jahreszeit zu beenden. Sie setzten sich gruselige Masken auf und machten mit ihren Trommeln und Rasseln einen ohrenbetäubenden Lärm. Aus den Masken sind heute Kostüme aller Art geworden – meistens sind diese bunt und lustig. • 2. Fastenzeit im zwölften Jahrhundert Ein zweiter Ursprung geht bis ins zwölfte Jahrhundert zurück. Um den Glauben der Menschen zu stärken, hat der Papst eine jährliche Fastenzeit zwischen Aschermittwoch und Karsamstag verordnet. Die Menschen sollten mehr beten und dafür weniger essen. Besonders Fleisch war streng verboten. Dies erklärt auch die Bezeichnung Karneval. Der Begriff kommt aus dem Lateinischen und „Carne vale“ bedeutet in etwa „Fleisch, lebe wohl“. Vor der strengen Fastenzeit haben es sich die Menschen dann noch einmal richtig gut gehen lassen und ausgiebig gegessen und gefeiert. • 3. Das Saturnalienfest Im alten Rom wurde früher das „Saturnalienfest“ gefeiert, welches als weiterer Ursprung für unser heutiges Karnevalsfest steht. Für einen Tag waren die Herren und ihre Sklaven „gleichgestellt“. Es kam sogar vor, dass die vornehmen Herren ihre Sklaven bedient haben. Heute spiegelt sich diese Tradition in den „Büttenreden“ wieder. Das Volk erhebt das Wort und hält lustige Reden.

Traditional foods that are left for Sinterklaas include tangerines, gingerbread, chocolate, and ‘mokjes’ (cookies made in the shapes of letters). Different regions of Belgium have different customs and traditions about St. Nicholas. The visit of Sinterklaas is a separate occasion than Christmas. Christmas is a more religious festival.
