Neapolitan Nativity – Faith Museum

Visit the Faith Museum in Bishop Auckland to see the UK’s only elaborate 18th-century nativity scene staged in a true-life Neapolitan setting.

Measuring 11ft tall and 15ft wide, the astonishing display features hundreds of components painstakingly created by an 18th-century team of craftspeople.

Admire all of the traditional characters from the renowned Bible story and even get a glimpse into the bustle of 18th-century Naples with a street market and tavern.
