Nativity scenes and Christmas masses
To help you organise your Christmas Eve celebrations, here is a list of the Christmas Masses scheduled in Brive and the surrounding towns.
Christmas Eve celebrations very often begin with Christmas Mass, and this is generally a highlight of the festive season. Both practising and non-practising Christians flock to this very popular service. They are often referred to as midnight Masses, even though they do not usually take place at such a late hour. On this occasion, live nativity scenes, handcrafted displays or scenes adorned with santons are set up in churches to depict the Nativity.
