The St. Nikolaus-Gesellschaft der Stadt Zürich has been celebrating the spirit of St. Nicholas every Christmas since 1947. Scores of Santas hand out food, books, gifts and other items to the needy and handicapped people of Zurich. The much-awaited pre-Christmas parade is also part of the festivities. Revelers of all ages come by to watch the gaily decorated procession, the jolly Santa Claus and the angelic singers.
