The Association of Nativity Scene Makers of Barcelona is once again building the traditional nativity scene of the city, but it will be installed in the courtyard of Carriages of the Barcelona City Hall instead of in the courtyard of the Frederic Marès Museum. This year, the nativity scene has been inspired by the marine environment to evoke the recent America's Cup and the centenary of the poet Joan Salvat-Papasseit, who worked in the Moll de la Fusta and mentioned it in some of his verses.
The birth, the annunciation to the shepherds or the arrival of the Kings of Orient will be some of the many scenes represented in the traditional crib that measures eight meters wide, four meters deep and 70 centimeters high.
If you are going to visit the crib on Saturday 14 or Sunday 15 December, please note that from 12:00 to 20:00 h, you can also visit the building of the Palau de la Generalitat, which organizes two days of open doors. In addition, from December 16 to 20, in the Pati Gòtic of the Palau and from 17:00 to 21:00 h, there will be a Tió de Navidad.
The visit to the crib is free and can be visited from November 29 to January 5, except on December 25 and January 1, when the space will be closed.
