Vilanova and Penedès Inspired Christmas Cribs

pessebres vilanova 2009 028

We are not a religioius family, but still enjoy the Catalan Christmas cribs – much more elaborated than those you can find in Swedish churches.

During the festive season every year, the Associació Pessebrista de Vilanova i la Geltrú holds a nativity scene exhibition and until January 17 there is still time to see it. You will find it in C/ Cabanyes, 17 baixos and the opening hours are Monday-Saturday: 18.00-20.00; Sundays and holidays: 12.00-14.00 and 18.00-20.00.
