RhB RailHit: One person pays, the other travels free. 2308 January 'Twelfth Night and Carol Singers' In Catholic regions, children dressed as the Three Kings go from house to house on Twelfth Night. They sing old and new Epiphany carols and religious airs from the 17 th century. Often, the kings are accompanied by someone carrying a star, as well as by servants or soldiers. Dressed in colourful costumes with glittering crowns, they make their way through the villages, collecting money for child relief organisations <strong>–</strong> as well as for sweets! 15
