In the small town Wünschendorf in the Erzgebirge (Ore Mountains) the company Erzgebirgische Kunstgewerbe und Spielwaren GmbH "Friedensbrücke" looks back on more than half a century of experience in the traditional wood art. Long before they formed a cooperative in 1956, the founding members were experienced masters of wood processing. The company was nationalised in 1973 and privatised again in 1993. Today “Friedensbrücke” is still specialized in producing classical but also unusual Christmas pyramids, which are made in genuine ore mountain handicraft. Erzgebirge-palace offers you an exquisite selection from their assortment.

Old town ambience

A speciality of the Friedensbrücke are the pyramids of the series "Old Town Ambience". The Friedensbrücke pyramid "Church of Seiffen" shows a precise model of the famous octagonal Seiffen mountain church from the 18th century, built of architectural cardboard and decorated with fine artificial snow. The church is standing in the middle of a beautiful frame in the shape of an arch and under the adjustable impeller driven by pyramid candles. Several filigree chip trees and a group of Kurrende figures (the traditional carol singers of the region) complete the design and make the pyramid a real gem.

The Friedensbrücke Christmas carousel "City Gate" presents itself innovatively without a frame and without tiers. The shopkeeper, the night watchman, the woodcutter, the young woman coming home from shopping - they are all embedded in a 3-D half-timbered old town scenery with a stately city gate, all of course made of wood and hand painted. Small trees and shrubs adorn the lively, romantic scenery. Both models can be converted for the operation with tea lights by using an adapter set. We recommend JEKA quality candles for both models.

Other Friedensbrücke Christmas pyramids

The classic pyramids of the Friedensbrücke are painted only discreetly in detail and rotate on two or three floors. The two two-tier Friedensbrücke pyramids "Birth of Christ" have a light or dark roof below the fan as a special feature. They are showing the Holy Family, the Holy kings and a shepherd in a rather modern and timeless style.

Almost all pyramids made by the Friedensbrücke workshops are powered by the heat of real candles. Only the magnificent Christmas pyramid "Nativity", showing all classical elements of Christ’s Birth on four-tiers, rotates with an electric motor. All Friedensbrücke Christmas pyramids are of course made of local woods and carefully painted by hand.
