Flight to Egypt
This small arolla pine sculpture of the holy family on their flight to Egypt dates back to the 17th century. It is one of the oldest works in Museum Gherdëina and an early example of wood carving in Gröden. Carved depictions of the nativity story were developed in the Middle Ages, and, as of the 18th century, lots of families in Gröden specialised in carving crib figurines.
