Today, December 8 illuminates the Crib of Manarola record version in 2008, an event that has now been renewed for over thirty years during the Christmas period, from 1962 to be precise, when Mario Andreoli, a former railroad now eighty, began to this tradition, and to whom I spoke also the last year .
But this year is new, in fact, the Nativity, built on an area of 4,000 square feet of terraces overlooking the sea, with fifteen thousand bulbs that draw the silhouette of 265 pictures made with recycled materials, will be powered by a system of photovoltaic panels.
The "tiles" are perfectly camouflaged photovoltaic roof of the hut of the Infant Jesus, and according to calculations should meet the energy needs of all 15 000 light bulbs installed.
This year, the crib will be installed until February, but once dismantled the photovoltaic will feed the power grid of Manarola.
Ecological Christmas then! ![]()
