St. Nicholas rides in the streetcar museum

The Hanover Tram Museum will open its doors on December 6, outside of its regular season, to welcome a special guest who is sure to delight the youngest visitors in particular: St. Nicholas.

A distinguished guest on a historic streetcar: St. Nicholas.

St. Nicholas has promised to ride the trams on the museum’s own tram line and to bring a little surprise for the children. On board the historic trams, the drivers and conductors will share interesting facts about the museum and the trams in service, and they’ll be happy to answer any questions.

Out and About with St. Nicholas

Anyone familiar with the approximately 2.5-kilometer loop at the HSM knows that it winds right through a forest that now has a wintry feel to it. A romantic atmosphere is therefore guaranteed even for adult visitors—perhaps even once again in a snow-covered setting. For all tram enthusiasts, this is the last chance this year to visit the museum.

The team from the HSM Bistro will be serving food. In addition, grilled bratwurst, hot mulled wine, and hot cocoa will be available that day.
