‘Léiwe Kleesche, gudde Kleesche…’. As he does every year, the Saint arrived by train at Mamer station, where he was welcomed by Mayor Luc Feller, Alderman Ed Buchette, members of the local council and representatives of the local Tourist Board.
St Nicholas then rode in a horse-drawn carriage to the Kinneksbond Cultural Centre, where many children were already waiting impatiently for him. After the children had sung him a little song and the Holy Man had convinced himself that they were all good, bags of sweets were distributed to them.
