The exhibition

From oxen, donkeys and sheep to camels, elephants and flamingos – nativity scenes can feature all sorts of animals depending on where they’re from. The traditional exhibition at the National Museum Zurich presents cribs from all over the world and this year takes a closer look at the animals and what they symbolise.
