RIBE - DENMARKS OLDEST CHRISTMAS TOWN - 2011

When Christmas time rolls around, Ribe goes into high gear by using the old, beautiful houses to set the stage for all kinds of Christmas activities - and like the good old days, it looks, smells, feels, sounds, and tastes of Christmas.

Peters Jul i Ribe


Christmas like in the good old days

 
Christmas in Ribe builds upon the beloved Danish
children’s book, “Peters jul”, in verse about a
middleclass family Christmas in the 1860’s.
The author had family in Ribe, and probably
celebrated Christmas in the Cathedral town here
with his brother, who made the illustrations for the
first adition of the book.

We bake, cut, glue, weave, fry and brew, in order for everyone to experience that old fashioned taste of Christmas.

Old fashioned Christmas

During the last month of the year, the Christmas spirit spreads through the old part of town, and in the basement shop in Porsborg on the main square, they make sure that no one leaves Ribe, without a little piece of Christmas cheer.
