Santa Claus Indiana Named From Saint Nick's Name

The Indiana town near Evansville has a debated origin for its name Santa Claus. One version says a 19th century post office request led to Sante-claus and later Santa Claus in 1928. A second tale recalls Christmas Eve 1882 when residents proclaimed the name Santa Claus in a general store discussion. The town now draws tourists to its museum, the original post office with toy collections, Santa Claus Park, life size Mother Goose figures, Kringle Street, and a 23 foot high statue of Santa weighing 42 tons.
