If you go out to the side exit you are in a small garden. The sandstone wall with stonework is worth seeing.

Saint Nicholas, Bishop of Myra, to whom the church in Spalt is dedicated, is one of the most popular saints of all, along with Saint Martin. Almost every child in Germany - and far beyond - should know his commemoration day, December 6th.
On the eve of this day, the children used to put their shoes or boots in front of the door - which of course had to be cleaned with great care - so that they could be filled with gifts by St. Nicholas during the night. In more agricultural areas, it was also customary for the children to put out a small amount of food for the donkey, St. Nicholas' riding animal (according to another tradition, it was a white horse).

"... Right at the beginning of our tour of the old town we pass magnificent buildings. First of all there is the impressive church of St. Nicholas with the double tower facade ..."

Forms the spiritual center of Spalt, not far from the Zehntscheuer, which is well worth seeing.

Spalt has a turbulent spiritual and theological history. This is also what one is confronted with when visiting the churches and remembering Spalatin
