The Tradition of Santa Lucia and the Star Boys.....
St. Lucia's Day is celebrated across Scandinavia on December 13 marking the beginning of the holiday season. St. Lucia (Lucia meaning "light") was a young Christian woman who refused to give up her faith to marry an unbeliever. There are many legends about her and in each one Lucia stands as a symbol of light and hope to all mankind. Santa Lucia's coming begins the feasting, merriment, singing and the spirit of friendliness and goodwill that lasts all through the holidays.
In the spirit of Norway’s Christmas tradition
