St. Martin of Tours continues to be remembered in many parts of western Europe through annual processions and the giving of presents to children on his day, [[November 11]], instead of [[December 6]] (St. [[Nicholas of Myra|Nicholas]]) or [[December 25]] ([[Christmas]]). His [[feast day]] is sometimes celebrated on [[November 12]].
