Christmas is celebrated in Germany on December 24th, known as "Heiligabend" or "Holy Evening." This is the night when families gather to exchange gifts, sing carols, and share a traditional Christmas feast. Germans also celebrate Christmas on December 25th and 26th, with many families visiting their local church to attend services and pray together. Santa Claus is also known as "Weihnachtsmann" in Germany, and children leave out milk and cookies for him on the night before Christmas.
