THE FABULOUS NATIVITY ATTRACTS VISITORS TO NAPLES °BORGATA°
The previously snubbed Rione Sanità area of Naples is guaranteed to draw the crowds with its special Christmas attraction – the Presepio Favoloso (Fabulous Nativity Scene), a stunning presentation of over a hundred realistic figurines in a classic Christmas Crib presentation, set up in the Sacristy of the 17th century Basilica of Santa Maria della Sanità in the heart of what was formerly a notorious Neapolitan slum area.
The Fabulous Nativity is the exclusive work of the Scuotto family, with the collaboration of restorer and scenographer Biagio Roscigno. The three brothers and two sisters of the Scuotto family run the celebrated Scarabattola artistic workshop and have carried the traditional Neapolitan art of handmade Nativity figurines to a new level of international appreciation.
The Fabulous Nativity will be opened to visitors on the 24th December 2024 and can be viewed every day until the 9th January 2025.
