In Luxembourg, the tradition of Saint Nicholas' Day is on the national list of intangible heritage. But who was this man to whom children have been writing a long wish list every year before December 6th for generations? And who is depicted in statues or images found in many places throughout the year, not just in churches. Where does he come from? What legends surround him and what is the tradition, especially in Luxembourg? The legends and traditions of Saint Nicholas' Day are presented. Additionally, photos of the representations of Saint Nicholas and the festivals in his honor from all over the country are shown. Historical reports and documentary films from the 40s to the 80s are also projected. Entry is free. Conference on Saint Nicholas representations and traditions in the entire country with historian Dr. Tom Zago and a children's program will also be offered.

The exhibition will be previously shown in the City and at the Cathedral, from November 11th to 24th.
