Nativity Scene at Plaça Sant Jaume

The nativity scene is a Christmas classic, but the one in Barcelona's Plaça Sant Jaume isn't necessarily classically traditional, but it's known for raising eyebrows and causing a lot of differing opinions due to its often transgressive nature. From November 20 to January 6 in the centre of the square where you'll also find City Hall, this year's scene depicts various and sometimes provocative representations of the birth of Jesus. Stop by at night when it's lit up for a special treat.
