An awe inspiring display! A must see to fully enjoy its beauty and splendor.  The nativity is 32' long, 10' high, and 20' deep and has 1,287 items. This culture folk-art exhibit was the life-long passion/work of a local Del Rio resident and was given to us for exhibition by her family after her death. Because of its size, it is on exhibit in its own temperature-controlled building.
