This video shows how St Lucia Day is celebrated in Sweden. The clips show what procedures are carried out during the day and the background music is the traditional St Lucia song.
St Lucia Day is celebrated widely with candlelight and traditional candle-lit processions. Lucia was a Christian and died for her faith. The eldest girl in the family puts on a white robe in the morning and wears a crown of candles. She serves her parents Lucia buns and coffee or mulled wine. In church, women sing the traditional St Lucia song which describes how she overcame the darkness and found light.
