What are holidays?
The word holiday comes from the Old English word "holy day". The word originally referred only to special religious days. Modern use varies geographically.

Shoeing
The tradition of shoe-setting dates back to the fifteenth century. In Utrecht, this is said to have been done as early as 1427 in the St. Nicholas Church. On Sinterklaas evening, some money is put in shoes, which is donated to the poor. Later, children would also be allowed to put a shoe or clog at home. The next morning there are treats in it.
