Polish Nativities & Creches


One of the most enduring Christmas traditions is setting up a creche Nativity set during the holiday season as a representation of the scene of Jesus Christ's birth. We feature a beautiful variety of Polish Nativity sets and creches directly from Poland, including a Polish pottery Nativity set, straw Nativity creche, and hand-carved and painted sets, but the most famous of all are those from Krakow. Each year on the first Thursday of December, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m., in keeping with the local tradition, Nativity scene makers gather in the picturesque scenery of the the Adam Mickiewicz statue to present their latest craftwork to the organizers of the Krakow Nativity Scene Contest — representatives of the Historical Museum of the City of Krakow (HMK) — as well as to the wide circle of tradition lovers. The contest was initiated in 1937 by the Krakow Municipal Board. As the local newspaper wrote on Dec. 23 of that year, "It yielded extraordinarily impressive results, and the Krakow authorities made a praiseworthy effort by inspiring nativity scene makers to safeguard the ancient custom, raise the level of their artistry, and — most of all — to preserve the purity of style of the Krakow nativity scene."
