In the Célestins church, a dozen merchants and artisans offer santons, honey, lavender... and plenty of gift ideas. A highlight of the festive season, the 50 m2 Provencal crib features 500 figures and as many animals.

This meticulously reconstructed miniature fresco allows visitors to discover the traditions of Christmas in Provence.
