Filigree craftsmanship & unique customs: Nativity scene exhibitions in the Salzkammergut
Cultural heritage and tradition
Visiting nativity scene exhibitions in the Salzkammergut is a special opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich culture and tradition of the region, which also brings the people there closer. In addition to the scenic beauty of the Salzkammergut, you can gain a deeper insight into the history, crafts and local customs by visiting nativity scene exhibitions, such as in Hallstatt or Bad Ischl. It is an opportunity to experience both the scenic and cultural diversity as well as the local customs up close.
The nativity scenes are often artistically crafted and testify to the mastery of local craftsmen. Exhibitions present the diversity and quality of the Upper Austrian Nativity Scene School and other local artists. The exhibitions are part of "Kripperlroas" (nativity scene rides), which take you on individual paths to various places and sights to discover the Salzkammergut in a special way. The visit to the nativity scenes can be combined with the exploration of the impressive natural landscape of the Salzkammergut.
