      😢Very sad story, but good to hear it and learn about this particular tradition. 🎼Actually recognized the song, so it was helpful to discover her history 📖. Enjoyed the promenade, singing & kitty buns too.
      Bless you all. ☮💛🌼

    This is such a lovely little “family”.

We are so blessed to have these dear people in our lives, especially at a time like this🤗

    I'm from Santa Lucia aka Saint Lucia, and this brought back lots of memories, especially the Festival of Lights which is today. The music and song is still played by the Royal St.Lucian Police Band whenever there are official celebrations on Island.

    It is wonderful to see the chapel really being part of the holidays this year and to be experiencing other traditions. So glad Selmar thought to bring the piano into the chapel as well. Hearing Phillip playing it brought it to life and with the new crèche it feels perfect. Good job on the buns, ladies!

    Here in our little Scandinavian corner of the US we missed having our big local Lucia presentation this year, but my kids brought lussebullar, krumkakor, pepparkakor and kannelbullar to my husband this morning with my tiny daughter in a crown with (fake) candles. Tonight we'll go to my in-laws (Farmor and Farfar) house and celebrate Luciadagen with them! So fun to see you guys do this lovely tradition as well.

    In Croatia on Santa Lucia (or “Sveta Lucija” in Croatian) we sow some wheat in a little pot and leave it to grow until christmas. We do that as a symbol of renewal of life and fertility. According to popular belief, depending on the appearance of the sprouted wheat, ie its density and color, there will be a better or worse harvest next year. -just a little Croatian tradition for your chateau.Sending loads of love from cold Croatia🇭🇷🇭🇷❤️🎄❤️🎄

    In some towns in the North of Italy, including my hometown, Brescia, the tradition claims that it is Saint Lucy that brings "christmas" gifts to children. Every kid wakes up on the 13th of december to find the gifts brought by the Saint during the night.

    Hi Stephanie I just had to say I subscribed to the château diaries earlier this year just because I love France and have always wanted to visit but I have to say you have all become like family. I have laughed and cried and escaped away to a chateau a couple times a week and I want to thank you all for allowing me and my family to be a small part of all your lives and making everyone seem so welcome through your videos. Merry Christmas to you all and may 2021 bring peace, happiness and togetherness back to all our lives again. God bless from Canada 🇨🇦

    On this 3rd Sunday in Advent, the hymn from Hamburg, Germany sums up the mission of John the Baptist (John Chp 1). "On Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry Announces that the Lord is nigh. Awake and hearken for he brings Glad tidings of the King of Kings." John, last of the Old Testament prophets, tells of the ADVENT of the one COMING after him, the. Messiah. So we rejoice, the Lord is coming soon . He comes to meet us. Blessed Advent and Happy and Holy Christmas to all!!
