Baumann seeks future for unique nativity collection - Bamberg’s Beloved Nativity Collector Searches for a New Home
Erk Baumann’s lifelong passion for nativity scenes may soon leave Bamberg. The collector, who began building his first display at just three years old, now plans to relocate his vast collection. With dwindling support and fewer visitors, he is searching for a new city willing to preserve his news. Baumann’s fascination with nativity scenes started in early childhood. By age three, he had already crafted his own miniature news. Over the decades, this interest grew into an extraordinary collection. Baumann’s departure from Bamberg marks the end of an era for the Nativity Museum. Without a new location, the collection’s long-term preservation remains uncertain. The search continues for a city ready to honour and sustain his lifelong work.
