Advent is a special time in <strong>Salzburg</strong>. The Baroque city<br />

turns into a dreamy Christmas fairy tale. The snow<br />

rests upon the church spires, the streets are festively<br />

decorated and illuminated Christmas trees adorn the<br />

courts. The spirit is everywhere. It is not surprising<br />

that Silent Night, the most famous Christmas carol in<br />

the world, chimed here in<br />

1818 for the first time in the<br />

nearby <strong>Salzburg</strong> Oberndorf<br />

Chapel.<br />

Before the magic happens on<br />

Christmas Eve and the presents<br />

are set under the Christmas<br />

tree, ‘Nikolaus‘ visits<br />

young and old on 6 December.<br />

He is accompanied by Krampus, with his furry<br />

coat, big horns and loud bells, can be a breathtaking<br />

sight that leaves even some naughty adults speechless.<br />

Only ‘Nikolaus‘ with his shepherd‘s staff can curb<br />

and dissuade Krampus from his gentle but determined<br />

blows. Through the scent of mulled wine and roasted<br />

almonds one quickly forgets the horrors of<br />

Krampus with a visit to one of the numerous Christmas<br />

markets. Let yourself be taken away with the<br />

Yuletide spirit.<br />
