Frau Holle
Once upon a time, there was a woman whose last name was “Holle.” She was responsible for ensuring that there was always clean laundry in her town and the many places around it. This was for people who either had none or didn’t have a very large (7 kg) washing machine at home.
Frau Holle washed all day in her little laundromat; she washed sweaters, pants, blouses, and shirts, and sometimes she even ironed them if people wanted to look particularly great in those clothes. She even washed children’s clothes, which were often completely stained or very dirty from playing in puddles. She washed towels, bed linens, and huge blankets because many people loved the special scent of their laundry.
Frau Holle knew from her grandmother that 'shaking out the beds' was already quite wonderful, but then she had the idea to wash them as well, and lo and behold, the comforters became much whiter, cozier, and more fragrant than ever before.
One day, while Frau Holle was busy washing laundry again, a tremendously strong whirlwind swept over the town. The police drove through all the streets and warned the residents over the loudspeakers to close all their doors and windows.
But the people didn’t listen; they wanted fresh air in their homes once again and even found it funny that the tablecloth flew off the table, the sofa blanket off the sofa, and the duvet, yes exactly, off the bed.
But the storm was so strong that everything that wasn’t securely tied down flew out of the houses. All the cloths and blankets, pillows and mats, curtains and drapes, jackets and coats - everything flew into the air, swept across the entire country, came back, and piled up right in front of Frau Holle’s laundromat.
Dear children, guess three times who got to wash and sort the laundry again?
Exactly, it was Frau Holle!
And all the people who hadn’t known her laundromat until now had to go to her to pick up their things, of course freshly washed.
And if you want to meet Frau Holle too, just tell your mom:
She should simply open all the windows the next time there’s a storm.
