Noëlies - Circuit of cribs

The crib in his village Bethléem-sur-Ried: Bridges, footbridges, waterfalls and half-timbered farmhouse under the protection of the angel: the crib was built in the 1930s by Marcel Lauffenburger with the help of the cabinetmaker Weibel; the figurines were carved with a penknife in lime wood. Village, parish, schools and associations share their know-how and enthusiasm weeks in advance. On 29 November, a night walk takes children to the gardens, courtyards and cellars of the inhabitants in song: this march in... Advent in 35 stages is a pretext for discovery and reunion; here, everyone is a passionate collector and inspired creator, from wood, plaster, cereals, pumpkins, and even an igloo manger guarded by penguins... up to the cart of conscripts!
