It’s officially Black Friday even in Munich. As I was walking down the street I came across this BIG beautiful Pyramid. My ex/mother/n/law is German and my first introduction to the pyramid was from her. She would get the box where it was stored and show me how to put it together and then the fun part was adding the candles at the bottom, so the heat could move the propellers. I fell in love with this Christmas traditional instantly.
To view a nice assortment of German ornaments and the pyramids, visit Käthe Wohlfahrt of America’s website. I am not affiliated with this site, mainly sharing with you, because it took me “forever” to find a website in America that sold the pyramids. Good news, they come in different sizes. Bad news, they are bit pricey for the 3-tiered ones. However, they are a Christmas tradition to be handed down to your children and grandchildren. Start small, then go BIG.
NOTE: Make sure you buy extra candles, because you cannot find the right size pyramid candles at normal stores.
If you come to Europe for the Christmas Markets depending on where you go, you will see even bigger pyramid displays.
Merry Christmas!
Brilliant Viewpoint

Yes, they are special. I notice in Munich that they seem to like hearts and angels a lot in their ornaments.

About a week. I’ve noticed that they don’t have many Christmas Market stalls now. They said it is because people weren’t buying from the vendors so much, so slowly less vendors came. It’s a lot of work for them if they don’t make enough money.

Yes, it is a German tradition to have a small pyramid in the house. If you look at that site I sent you, you’ll see how cute and interesting many of the German Christmas decorations are.
