Nativity scene goes on display at farm

The Manger will run until Christmas Eve where you will find Jesus, Mary, Joseph and the three Kings in a remake of that world famous stable complete with donkey, sheep, cows and other animals.

This has been an annual event since 2005 and is one of the most popular displays to be run at Tannaghmore, with people coming from far and wide to see it – particularly because all the animals are rare breeds!

Featuring Galway sheep, Irish Molled cows and pygmy goats you will find this heartwarming nativity display in a converted outhouse on the farm.

“Our nativity scene really is something that has to be seen to be believed,” said Richard McKitterick, Grounds Maintenance Supervisor at Tannaghmore. “We are always inundated with visitors coming to see the Live Manger and is a great way to remind children of the true meaning of Christmas.”

The Live Manger will be on show every day until Christmas Eve from 10am to 4pm. As well as visiting the nativity scene don’t forget to check out the rest of the rare breeds farm, the play park, maze and beautiful gardens.
