Killing Gävle
In the small city of Gävle in northern Sweden, there is an annual fight between local custodians and mischievous pagans for the spirit of Christmas.
Each year since 1966, local business owners have paid for a 40ft (13 metre) effigy of a goat to be made of straw and displayed in the city's central square from the first day of Advent. In 37 of those years, the goat has been burned down or damaged by shadowy outsiders, sometimes within a few hours of going up. In this film, residents from both sides of the goat conflict explain their hopes and motivations as Advent ticks down to Christmas

Arson as a Christmas Tradition: The Gävle Goat
In Gävle, Sweden, every year they build Gävlebocken, an enormous traditional Swedish Christmas straw goat. And every year, someone tries to burn it down. Here's to holiday traditions.
THANKS TO: Axel Wickman, @axelwickm on Twitter, for the post-burning photos of the goat from this morning!

Who Killed Gävle? The Doomed 40-Foot Christmas Goat
Every year since 1966, the small town of Gävle in Sweden erects a 40-foot straw goat on the first day of Advent. For 37 of those years, the Gävle goat has been destroyed; more often than not, it has been set ablaze and burned to the ground.
So ensues the annual conflict for the spirit of Christmas, fought between the Christians who run Gävle’s businesses—who believe that the effigy brings local families and tourists to the city, and also serves as a symbol of light in times of darkness—and the pagans who live in the surrounding forests. The pagans’ traditions date back to pre-Christian times, when Swedes worshipped Norse gods, including the goat Heidrun, the goddess of enlightenment, and Thor, the god of thunder, who rode across the skies on a chariot led by two goats. At night, Thor would burn and eat the goats; in the morning, they would be reborn. (In Norse mythology, the world was created in a blaze of fire.)
“Every year, they build their Trojan horse, and every year, they are shocked when Troy gets burned to the ground,” says an unnamed pagan interviewed in Joe Fletcher’s short documentary, Killing Gävle. In the film, produced by The Guardian, residents from both sides of the goat conflict explain their motivations and belief systems. Read more:
Killing Gävle was directed by Joe Fletcher and produced by The Guardian. It is part of The Atlantic Selects, an online showcase of short documentaries from independent creators, curated by The Atlantic.
