Weihnachten im Regen kann auch sehr stimmungsvoll sein, wie ein Besuch auf dem Weihnachtsmarkt in Schloss Eldingen zeigt. Diese stille, festlich beleuchtete Atmosphäre hat einen ganz besonderen Zauber. Umso mehr freue ich mich über dieses gelungene Foto, das ich ohne jedes Stativ aufgenommen habe. Manchmal hat man Glück!
For centuries, the song has crossed borders and overcome crises. It connects people no matter their origin, age or religion, and provides a link back to the time during which it was created. 200 years ago, Joseph Mohr, a priest from Salzburg, and Franz Xaver Gruber, a teacher from Upper Austria, sang the song for the very first time at the St. Nikola Church in Oberndorf near Salzburg. The original poem was authored by Joseph Mohr, whereas Franz Xaver Gruber added the melody on his request. Only a few years later, singing families from the Zillertal valley carried the song from Austria into Europe and the rest of the world. Today, the song is performed in over 300 languages and dialects. ©www.stillenacht.com

"Stille Nacht! Heilige Nacht!
Alles schläft, einsam wacht
nur das traute hoch heilige Paar.
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar,
schlaf in himmlischer Ruh',
schlaf in himmlischer Ruh'!
