Experience the unique atmosphere at the very place where the world-famous song "Silent Night! Holy Night!" was sung for the very first time!
The modest, deliberately simple chapel is visited every year by guests from all over the world.
It was consecrated in 1937 after twelve years of construction; it was financed only by donations and stands on the spot where St. Nicola's Church once stood.
In this church, on 24 December 1818, "Silent Night! Holy Night!" was sung for the first time in this church and from there it made its way around the world.
The two windows in the chapel show the song creators Joseph Mohr and Franz Xaver Gruber.

A cold front passed over our region on Wednesday. Before the arrival of a new weather front which is currently forming over the sea, we will experience a short period of calm weather on Thursday. We will see a nice start to the day. But soon the clouds will gradually increase and it will start to snow.

It should not be too difficult to accept today’s unstable weather. Although there will still be a few showers continuing tomorrow, clear spells will increase. The day after tomorrow will produce fantastic weather with plenty of sunshine and nice temperatures.
