A traditional crib is currently on display in one of the Gozo Cathedral’s side chapels.

The crib as well as its pasturi or figurines were commissioned by parishioner Joseph Abela. The crib itself, the pasturi and animals are all the original work of the young Gozitan artisan Charles Camilleri of Nadur. The figurines are dressed in Jewish period costumes.
