Meet Krampus, have some mulled wine, take a photo! This special after-hours event will host members of the Minnesota Krampus Society in their traditional costume. The event will be on the back patio under a tent, so dress warmly. No reservations needed! **Please note the Cat Den will be closed for this event**Minnesota Krampus was founded in 2014 to promote the culture and customs of the winter holiday traditions from the area around Salzburg, Austria through public performance, events, and literature. The organization aims to foster stronger relationships between members and the alpine heritage, and provide academic scholarships to college students studying cultural and/or historical topics involving the Alps and its people.
Our organization takes great pride in the time and research that we’ve put into acquiring the most authentic costumes and masks from the Salzburg area. We have made numerous workshop visits over the years and are partnered with some of the most talented master folk craftsmen available. Our goal is to ensure our costumes will always be 100% authentic to the traditions as it is celebrated in the Alps. As of August 2021, we have imported:
— Over 2 dozen hand-carved wooden masks made by a master wood carver from the Pongau region of Salzburg state, Austria,
— Over a dozen two-piece alpine goathair suits from the Pinzgau region of Salzburg, and
— Over a dozen different sizes, shapes, and ring quality bells and shells
