Friends at OWV Plößberg construct the globe's gigantic nativity tableau
In the picturesque town of Ploßberg, Germany, preparations are underway for an extraordinary event that promises to captivate visitors from far and wide. The Organization for the World's Largest Nativity Scene (OWV) in Ploßberg is planning to construct the largest nativity scene in the world, set to be unveiled in 2020.
Haubner, the leader of the nativity enthusiasts in the OWV Ploßberg, is orchestrating the main attraction of the next big nativity display. Inspired by regional traditions, he suggests incorporating unique features from the Oberpfalz region, such as the Goaßreiter, into the landscape.
The heart of this grand spectacle will be the largest nativity scene, which will be created in a theater-like setting and will span approximately 140 square meters. A colossal root mountain will dominate the scene, adorned with numerous figurines, houses, and entire cities, crafted by various carvers and nativity builders. The centerpiece of the scene will be the stable with the Holy Family from the famous Gerl nativity, complete with an angel crown.
Visitors will have the unique opportunity to walk among the figures of the largest nativity scene, including stone masons and dwarves. The scene will also include the mechanical nativity, nativity scenes in the nativity museum, and the carving room, all integrated into the exhibition.
The "Ploßberg nativity paradise" is already renowned beyond the county borders, attracting attention for its large-scale nativity display in 2020. These displays often feature elaborate arrangements of figurines, lighting, and scenery to depict the traditional Christmas story. They may also incorporate special lighting, music, and interactive elements to enhance the experience.
Community involvement is a significant aspect of these projects, with local residents and businesses contributing to their creation and maintenance. The Ploßberg nativity scene is no exception, as it is expected to involve thousands of figures and the collaboration of numerous artisans.
While the specific details of the "largest nativity scene in the world" in Ploßberg may vary, one thing is certain: it promises to be a festive and unforgettable experience for all who attend. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project!
