Barbara und Nikolaus
**Barbara und Nikolaus** (Barbara and Nicholas) refers to two traditional folk holidays celebrated in early December in German-speaking countries. On December 4th, "Barbarazweige" (cherry branches) are cut to bloom by Christmas, while on December 6th, children place boots out for St. Nicholas, who fills them with small gifts, sweets, or—naughty children beware—twigs.
