Christkind Angel (Nichole Perlberg)Come meet the Christkind, a fairy-like being dressed in gold and white robes with a crown upon her golden locks. She is the namesake of the Christkindlmarket and watches over it all. Christkind folklore dates back to the 1500's and stems from traditional customs: parades during the holiday season were guided by one “grand” angel, the Christkind. Since then, and still today, she is the bearer of gifts to most children in German-speaking countries, much like Santa Claus is in the United States. Traditionally, children tell Christkind their Christmas wishes at the Market, and then gifts are exchanged December 24th and delivered by the Christkind, who leaves them under the Christmas tree and disappears before the children can catch a glimpse of her.
Come let her collect your Christmas wishes! |
