    The Krauß Pyramid (also Kraußpyramide) is a large pyramid erected outdoors at Christmas time in the Saxon city of Schwarzenberg. In the Erzgebirge, the region of origin of the current form of the Christmas pyramid, it is the oldest preserved and still operating outdoor pyramid and is therefore unique in the world.
