Have you ever heard about St Martin's Day? On 11 November every year, children in Germany build colourful lanterns and walk around their villages, singing songs about St Martin. Sometimes there are white horses involved, too! In the end there is a big fire and everone gets a Martinsbrezel.

To find out more about the life and story of St Martin, listen to our mini radio programme!

You can download the podcast here or listen to the player below.

This podcast was created during a UK-German Connection workshop day at Belfast High School.
