Like each year at the end of November / beginning of December we are looking forward to the local Christmas decorations.
 |
| La Grande Rue - Cormatin |
De big hit each year is the illumination of Cormatin’s High Street. People flock from far and wide to Cormatin to see these wonders. Far is in this case not restricted to far-away places like La Bergerie and Chazelle; no, for this special occasion people from Ameugny, Taizé, malay and even from Saint-Gengoux come to gaze at these decorations.
 |
| Epicerie Berger - Cormatin |
Also worth seeing is the yearly display in the Epicerie in Cormatin’s Main Street. In December it is virtually impossible to enter the shop because of the amount of spectators. For this special occasion the shop also opens its doors on Sundays, the whole month of December!
 |
| Nativity Scene - Notre-Dame de l'assomption Cormatin |
And finally there is the traditional nativity scene, looking different each year, and each year again a sight for sore eyes. For those who like to visit: it is extremely difficult to find a parking space in the vicinity of the church; the SNCF however deplies special (free) buses.
La Tuilerie de Chazelle sends you its Season’s Greetings!
Wow. That sounds very festive! I feel like towns in the South are a little behind on Christmas decorations, although it is better than 20 years ago.
