Liechtenstein - Switzerland

Dec. 12, 1982 - A more than 300-year-old eastern Swiss custom: this group of men with ornate high head masks and white clothes, who carry big alpine cow bells, walks through the eastern village of Kaltbrunn following an old custom, which was first mentioned in 1676 and is held every three to five years in early winter time, always after November 25. This sort of procession is traditional in eastern Switzerland and this event is the first of those in year
