"Good luck, good luck! The Steiger is coming!" And what has he already lit? That's right: the Freiberg orifice, which was used by miners in the Erzgebirge as a miner's lamp from the 17th to 19th centuries. This year, it can be recreated from recycled materials in the town and mining museum on St Nicholas' Day. As soon as the light comes on, you can hear the old song from afar, as the big mining parade makes its way through the streets to Freiberg's Christmas market from 5 pm. This is mining tradition live.
