Nativity scenes rank among the loveliest - and the most tangible - aspects of the Christmas season. This is especially true of Bamberg, the Nativity Town. On a reflective stroll along the nativity trail, walkers will discover an abundance of nativity scenes spread across around 36 stations, including the Cathedral, small chapels, museums and public buildings all around Bamberg's Old Town and beyond in the outskirts and in Bamberg County.
Unser Tipp
Komm für 3 Tage in das Winterliche WelterbeGut zu wissen:
- Die Krippen zur Adventszeit werden jährlich von Jahr zu Jahr im Sommer für die kommende Weihnachtszeit aktualisiert.
- Eine Besonderheit in Bamberg sind die Krippen in der Passionszeit um die Ostertage herum. Die Fastenkrippen, wie sie auch genannt werden, zeigen das Leiden und Sterben Jesu Christi.
