The arrival of St. Nicolaus is every year very popular especially among the youngest. By this occasion, the National Stud Farm Topolcianky prepared an impressive program for children.
The first visitors came at 3 o’clock in the afternoon. By the entrance, all the children were given a healthy snack sponsored by Agro Tami Nitra. The visitors could take a ride in a carriage driven by Lipizzaners and also see the historical stables.
The program started at 4 o’clock. The riders, vaulters and their parents told the story of Aladin, his magic lamp and three special wishes. The spectators watched the fairy tail accompanied by beautiful music and light effects. The riders wore historical costumes which made the atmosphere even more magical. At the end of the program, children called out St. Nicolaus. He came together with his helpers – an angel and an evil - in a carriage pulled by two white Lipizzaners. St. Nicolaus gave out at least two hundreds presents.
We believe that those who came went home happy and those who didn’t come will do it next year. It is worth it!
On behalf of the National Stud Farm Topolcianky we wish you merry Christmas and happy New Year.
