The largest Provençal church crib in the Gard returns this year with a new lease of life, imagined as a living work of art, fashioned from light, wood and clay.... An outing for young and old alike. Immerse yourself in the mystery of Christmas!
Under the vaults of the church, poetry takes shape, the craftsman's hand becomes a paintbrush, and landscapes are transformed into a canvas where earth and craftsman meet. Each detail, each santon, each reflection tells a story: that of a simple, luminous and profoundly human world.
Romain Rodriguez, santonnier gardois, invites you to take the time to immerse yourself in Provencal tradition with his large-scale Christmas crib.
From the end of November, the mystery of Christmas takes shape in the church of Comps. Romain Rodriguez's large Christmas crib blends with Provencal tradition, where the story of a birth combined with the enchantment of Christmas will fill you with wonder.
For several years now, he has been offering visitors a chance to see a vast crib, unique and different every year, in the church of Comps. Each scene is subtly arranged in the spirit of an authentic Provencal crib.
Let yourself be carried away by the dream like a child!
