Rare performance – Extraordinary cradle: The passion to amaze

Date:

Although nativity scenes can be found in almost every home, depictions of the Passion of Jesus are extremely rare in Carinthia. A man from Villach built a large, detailed Easter nativity scene with 14 stations. He also needed thyme, oregano and yarrow…

“In 2020 I built The Last Supper in front of my house. I’ve been thinking about the passion crib for a long time. They are more common in Tyrol, Heinz Eichler built one in Feldkirchen, but otherwise there are hardly any in Carinthia,” says Hermann Bidner, who ordered the figures during the Corona period. “You determine the size of the cradle yourself,” explains the master crib builder explains: “I planned from a box at home, so the Passion crib is 16 inches deep, but very wide.”
