Chemin des Crèches - the Smallest Crib


I walked right past this crib, thinking it was simply a Christmas door decoration.

Later, on my return, there it was - a bright red ring box displaying the tiniest nativity scene I've ever seen.

  5. Oh dear, in a ring box, how tiny!
    I've said it before but I'm amazed at the creativity of all local inhabitants. This walk is so much fun I think I'll have to visit you in December next year (this year!)

  9. The quaint custom of the Crib is beautiful. What a lovely surprise along your wanderings.
    I also agree the door has a lot of character. They remind me of the ones I have seen all around Geneve & Annecy.

  10. What lovely surprises you encounter on your wanderings through these old towns.
    I also love this one with the beautiful wrought iron doors. They remind me of the ones I have seen around Geneve & Annecy.
