75 stations light up along the "Waldbreitbach Nativity Scene Trail". This also includes lovingly designed small nativity scenes in stores and private gardens. All attractions in the village can be visited daily and admission is free.
Highlights include the large natural root nativity scene in the parish church "Maria Himmelfahrt" with over 1,000 roots, the floating nativity scene on the Wied, the floating Advent wreath with a diameter of 8 m, the life-size figures from the Erzgebirge, the open-air nativity scene and the candle arch nativity scene from the Waldbreitbacher Krippenfreunde. You can also marvel at the Advent calendar house with Christmas scenes from Germany and all over the world. The Christmas illumination on the 18 m high guild tree with a diameter of 6 m and almost 10,000 LEDs provides a golden sparkle in the center of the village.
The route through the village is indicated here (1.2 km). A few detours to nativity scenes to the right and left of the path extend the total distance to around 2 km. The cribs and other highlights are numbered with yellow stars. You can find the brochure with all the cribs here Christmas Village Flyer 2024/25 or by contacting the Wiedtal Tourist Association at www.wiedtal.de or by telephone on 02638 -4017.
