On
the first story
of this pyramid a mining scene reflects the hard work of the miner of
this period which is surrounded by a marching miners’ brotherhood.
On the second story
the Christian Christmas tale as related to us in the New Testament is
presented. It shows the birth of Jesus. The shepherd and the three holy
kings come to adore the newborn Christ and to present their gifts. The
third story
symbolically shows the murder of the infants in Bethlehem by Herod and
his soldiers. The five Christmas choir singers on the fourth
story stand for the holy church and the three trombone-playing
angels on the fifth story
symbolize heaven streched out over everything.The painting of the body
of the pyramid is done in the traditional Saxon colors of white-green
and gold. A 50-note music box built into it brings your ears three well-known
Christmas carols in unique beauty.
