From Old World Christmas. The St. Nicholas Ornament pays tribute to the man who inspired the myth and ideology of Santa Claus or Father Christmas. He was a bishop in the 4th century whose kindness and generosity was bestowed on the poor and downtrodden. St. Nicholas is now one of the patron saints of children and is celebrated on December 6th, which has been designated St. Nicholas Day. He was a very kind and benevolent bishop who was legendary for performing miracles many years ago, however today he is the European equivalent of the American Santa Claus.
