The nativity scene set up at the base of the Campanile di San Domenico returns for the 2026/2027 Christmas holidays as well; it is the only remaining trace of the church of the same name, demolished in 1925. The initiative revitalises a little-frequented area of the city, opening the space towards the gardens of the Lungo Rio. The nativity scene can be visited free of charge from 12 November 2026 until 25 January 2027. The display is curated by the Associazione per i Monumenti Domenicani, which has been organising this initiative for years during the Christmas holidays.
