    In the city centre there is for Christmas time the Christmas crib on the street. In every church is a Christmas crib too. We like go from the one church to the other and see the Christmas cribs. In this cribs there are too living animals, but I take this foto a little to late... maybe next year :)
    This Christmas crib made a charity organisation "Stowarzyszenie Droga". They made a collection for the children of the poor families.
