Product Description
This beautiful large advent calendar depicts a romantic snow dusted view of the Christmas market in Erfurt, Germany.

In the tower of the St. Marien Cathedral, the world's largest free-swinging medieval bell rings the glorious name "Gloriosa". The city of Erfurt is considered to be the largest contiguous landmark in Germany.
