If you believe the Cologne folk tale, or the poem by August Kopisch from 1836, the Cologne Heinzelmännchen once did the hard work of bakers, butchers, tailors, coopers etc. at night, while the people slept. When they woke up in the morning, all their day’s work was done.
Yes, it would have gone on like this forever if the tailor’s nosy wife had not set an evil trap for the industrious brownies
a nasty trap to expose them…
In 2016, the idea grew that in today’s fast-paced world, we should all have at least one Heinzel in the house!
A journeyman who, with a little luck and imagination, takes care of the everyday chores and all the time-consuming, annoying tasks and always does them with a smile on their lips and a twinkle in their eye!
Her mere presence in the house also motivates some people to get things done!
With us, each of you will find your own personal Brownie.
Lovingly designed with lots of details, hand-painted, in a gift box and, above all, in a limited edition with its own limited edition number!
In addition to all the Heinzelmännchen, you can also discover the coveted collector’s cups
from the Cologne Christmas market here in the online store „Heinzels Wintermärchen“.
