On December 6, Santa Claus comes and brings nice presents, which is tradition in Austria. The holiday is named after Saint Nicholas of Myra, one of the most famous saints in the Catholic Church. It is said that he was very kind and generous, especially towards children and the poor.
While Krampus, often his companion, punishes the bad children, Santa Claus rewards those who were good. Some people he visits personally, others find his little gifts in their shoes in the morning.
