Abstract:
When German immigrants came to the Piedmont in the 18th-century, they brought with them their beliefs and customs, their ways and traditions, their lore and legends, and many of the customs associated with one of the most prominent religious holidays--Christmas. Many of the most beloved Christmas symbols are a part of the heritage received from the Germans.
