Salzburgers found their own Krampus flat share
In the middle of the first Covid lockdown, five friends from Tennengau founded the Corona Pass. Now the men even live together - welcome to the Salzburg Krampus flat share!
The idea came from their wives. "You're just coming home to snore and stink anyway," the members of the St. Koloman Corona Pass were always told when they came home from their house visits - dressed up as Krampus and St. Nicholas. "Actually, you could sleep away from home right now," the wives would tell their loved ones.
No sooner said than done! The five Tennengau residents Wolfgang Göllner, Sebastian Fiedler, Hannes Schorn, Andreas Waldmann and Hannes Klabacher didn't need to be asked twice and quickly set up their own Krampus flat share. "I rent out a vacation home in St. Koloman, where we always nest between 4 and 6 December," laughs Waldmann. Nobody has to worry about each other snoring either - each Krampus has their own bedroom. "We have a good time together, it's like being on vacation," grin the five men.
The Corona Krampus don't need any runs
The friends got together in the middle of the first Covid lockdown. Krampus and Perchten runs were banned at the time - so they decided to revive the old custom of house visits. "Fittingly, we then called ourselves Corona Pass," says Fiedler. Around St. Nicholas' Day, the "Covid-Krampusse" go from house to house in St. Koloman. "People like it, we can even fulfill all the requests." During their visits, the Tennengauers collect donations for the "St. Koloman hilft" campaign. Over the past four years, they have raised almost 3000 euros.
However, you won't find the men from Corona Pass at Krampus wreaths or runs. "That hardly has anything to do with tradition anymore, we don't need that," the five of them emphasize in unison. And: "We'd rather stay in our shared flat."
