Nativity Scenes

The “Pessebre” is a Catalan tradition. We do this on the 24th of December. The pessebre consists in building a nativity scene. We build the nativity scene in our houses and in a big square at the city hall. We buy figurines in the market in front of the cathedral.

In this scene we put a child with his parents and with an ox with a mule in a scene and in another scene we put the sheperds to give presents to the baby. In another scene are the shepherds with their animals (chickens, pigs...). In another scene aret he three kings, they are going to give their presents to the baby. Hidden in the scene is a “shitter”.

Everday we move the Kings and on the 5th of January the kings finish their travel.

Christmas Presents


The Kings of Orient go to all of the cities with their animals and their people and give presents to the children.

First Patge Xiu-Xiu goes to the neighborhoods and the people bring him a letter. In the letter the children write about the presents that they want. Patge Xiu-Xiu gives the letters to the three Kings. Then, the Kings read the letters and prepare the presents.

On January 5th, at night, they go to the houses and put the presents under the Christmas tree. In the morning the children open the presents and play with them. Finally, the Kings return to their country and they prepare for the next year.
