Our American Santa Claus — a plump, jolly old fellow dressed in red — is just one of many gift-giving characters who preside over the Christmas season. Depending on where you are in Europe, it’s possible to bump into St. Nicholas, Father Christmas, Père Noël, Samichlaus, Sinterklaas, and others. All are brothers of sorts, tracing their lineage back either to an early Christian saint or a pagan deity.

While Santa Claus comes from America, and St. Nicholas comes from Germany, the Julenisse comes from the Norwegian forest–just behind the family barn. There are entire communities of these "little people" (nisse), who come in all shapes and sizes, but the Christmas Julenisse is a kind of cross between Father Christmas and an ordinary nisse. He has a red stocking cap, a long white beard, a Norwegian sweater, and a heavy fur coat. Old timers believed their home’s resident nisse was the original set

The festive swirl of heartwarming sights, sounds, and smells of Christmas abound in Austria — the land where the season's most-loved carol, "Silent Night," was first performed over 200 years ago. According to legend, Joseph Mohr, a priest, went out one Christmas night to bless a newborn baby. As he walked home in the snow, he was so moved by the stillness of the starlit, holy night that he wrote a poem about it. He later gave the poem to Franz Gruber, his church organist, who quickly composed a

When winter’s gloom descended on ancient pre-Christians, they looked around and saw a few things that didn’t die: evergreens. This seemed to promise that the warmth and fertility of summer would return. After they decorated their huts with holly, ivy, or laurel, they likely took a deep whiff… and dreamed of spring. The mysterious Druids, the priests of the ancient Celts, adorned their temples with evergreens as a symbol of everlasting life. The Vikings of Scandinavia considered evergreens the fa

Throughout Scandinavia, a highlight of the season is December 13th, the feast day of Santa Lucia. She was a fourth-century Sicilian woman who (according to the lore) wore a head wreath adorned with candles to light the way as she helped persecuted Christians hiding in tunnels. The Scandinavian version of the legend is that a young woman born of rich and noble parents — dressed in a white gown with a red sash and wearing a crown of lingonberry twigs and blazing candles — traveled from one farm to

Famous German artist Albrecht Durer was from the same generation as Michaelangelo and Leonardo. Durer traveled to Italy and saw that artists were becoming well paid and respected, therefore after he returned to Germany, he brought the spirit of the Renaissance back with him. Durer had a passion for realistic detail and was a master at producing engravings from finely etched plates.

The Imperial Nürnberg Castle in Germany is set upon a highly elevated rock, so it called for a very deep well. Today, the castle illustrates that in a fun and memorable way. A splash of water released from the top of the well takes about six seconds to reach the bottom. Don’t think that's deep? Try imagining free falling into a body of water for six seconds.

Simply put, Hagia Sophia in Istanbul is one of the most magnificent, influential, historic, and revered buildings on Earth. For centuries, it served as the greatest church in Christendom. It was home to the Byzantine Emperor and Orthodox Patriarch (the “eastern pope”), and a beacon of civilization during Western Europe’s so-called “dark ages.” When Muslims conquered Constantinople, this great church suddenly became one of the world’s greatest mosques.
