Customs - Christmas post office in Himmelpfort heralds hot phase
A good two weeks before Christmas Eve, the wish list branch in Himmelpfort, Brandenburg, is entering the hot phase. "The letters should be received by the second Advent at the latest, otherwise it could be difficult to get a timely response before Christmas Eve," said a Deutsche Post spokeswoman on Wednesday. However, the Christmas post office is still open until Christmas Eve.
According to the post office, around 10,000 wish lists from children in Germany and abroad had already arrived by mid-November. In terms of the number of letters received, the branch is the largest of its kind in Germany. Last year, according to Deutsche Post, around 310,000 letters were received from children in 60 countries.
The reply letters from Santa Claus and his 20 Christmas angels are sent all over the world via the Hennigsdorf mail center with a special postmark. The children's letters are processed in the Christmas post office in a four-day week from Thursday to Sunday from 11 am to 5 pm.
