    The sculptural travertine nativity scene is placed to protect fishing boats and sailors.
    And, while it overlooks the underwater Nativity placed beneath it, it looks towards the infinite blue of the sea. The sculptures are located in correspondence with the second and third sections of the South Pier of San Benedetto del Tronto. In particular, it is close to the water. The Nativity scene was created between 2010 and 2018 by the naive sculptor Giuseppe Straccia on behalf of the Italian Naval League.
    The figures placed on the rocks represent typical characters of the Sambenedetto seafaring, such as the rope-maker, the retara, the fisherman, the cat lady....
    Very suggestive work
