The large Christmas group of Jac. Bongaerts
10 December 2024 - 5 January 2025

It is on display again, Jac. Bongaerts’ amazing Christmas group!
This masterpiece of the museum will be brought out again for Christmas. He worked more than 400 hours on this over 3 metres long ceramic Christmas group and it weighs over 100 kilos. The Christmas group is set in a Limburg landscape, with familiar Tegel figures from Bongaerts’ youth like the fishmonger, the charcoal collector and the organ man roaming the streets. It is one of the last projects Jac Bongaerts made before he died in 1997. Moving images will also be shown showing Jac Bongaerts making this Christmas group. The Christmas group will be on display until 5 January 2025.
