„The Spirit of Christmas“
During the Middle Ages, when few people could read or write, numerous pictures of scenes from the bible were manufactured at churches. The Merseburg Cathedral also preserved many images of the tales about baby Jesus. We follow traces of the Christmas story and the customs that derive from it. In the following, we form our own souvenirs made of salt dough.
