Heiligabend in Böhmen zur k. u. k.-Zeit

Zwischen Tschechen und deutschsprachigen Bewohnern in Böhmen gibt es im 19. Jahrhundert bis zum 1. Weltkrieg nur wenige Unterschiede, wenn es um die Traditionen zu Weihnachten geht. Auf den Tisch kommen Karpfen, Golatschl und die "Annamerlbröih".

von Rainer Christoph

Winter in Paulusbrunn: Kirche und Pfarrhaus sind tief verschneit. Auch beim Pfarrer gab es einen Karpfen.
