EDITORS COMMENTS
A Heartwarming Tradition: Pelz-Nickel, or Furry Santa Claus, of Germany (1852) This enchanting photograph captures the magical moment as Papa, dressed as Pelz-Nickel, the regional version of Santa Claus in Germany, delights children with presents during the Christmas season. Dating back to the mid-19th century, this heartwarming tradition adds another layer to the rich history and customs of the holiday in Germany. Pelz-Nickel, also known as Pelze Nick or Pelzebock, is a beloved character in German folklore, often depicted as a fur-clad Santa Claus figure. This unique interpretation of the jolly old man in red suit is deeply rooted in the history and culture of Germany, where it has been passed down through generations. In this photograph, taken in 1852, we see Papa, dressed in a full fur suit, complete with a bushy white beard and a traditional felt hat. The children, dressed in their finest holiday attire, eagerly await their turn to receive gifts from this enchanting figure. The warm glow of the fireplace and the cozy surroundings add to the idyllic scene, creating a sense of nostalgia and wonder. The tradition of Pelz-Nickel is just one of the many regional customs that make the Christmas season in Germany so special. This heartfelt photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of family, traditions, and the magic of the holiday season, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history and cultural nuances of Christmas in Germany.
