Each year around christmas, the special "Silent Night" post
office opens its doors in Oberndorf bei Salzburg. In importance
and popularity it ranks second after the special "Christkindl" post
office, both of which are managed by the Österreichische
Post AG.
All letters and postcards that are brought to this post
office, will be sent with the current Austrian Christmas
stamp and will be stamped with the special "Silent Night" postmark.
Since 2004 also the Silent Night Association is publishing
a Silent Night Stamp every
year.
Christmas Stamp 2005: St. Nikolaus Church. Due to major
damage after heavy floods at the end of the 19th century,
the church was completely taken down. Günter Veichtlbauer
