Cologne/ Köln Cathedral Advent Calendar

From Brück and Sohn (Printers in Meissen, Germany, 1793-2018) a charming Advent Calendar of the Köln / Cologne Cathedral Christmas Market - the largest Christmas market in Cologne. This delightful advent calendar is 10" x 15".  

Declared a World Cultural Heritage site by UNESCO in 1996, the Cologne Cathedral is the cathedral of the Cologne Archbishopric and is under the patronage of St. Peter. The Cathedral's bell, the St. Petersglocke, called "Big Peter," was cast in 1923 and is the largest (horizontally mounted) freely swinging ringable bell in the world - Brück and Sohn

After celebrating their anniversary in October 2018 of 225 years, the 7th generation, Annette and Helmut Brück, are now retired and have closed their doors. An era has come to an end.

The Brücks plan to explore the history of their company and offer a small museum and postcard archive which are preserved in Meissen and which is open to the public by appointment. 

My Growing Traditions has scavenged where we could and replenished our inventory in hopes of being able to make them available to you as long as possible.
