Christmas in Ohio: Nutcrackers, Victorian village, Nativity
Posted December 12, 2017 6:00 am
Six-foot-tall nutcrackers, a life-size Nativity display and a Dickens Victorian Village: These are some of the ways that Ohio says 'Merry Christmas!'
Scenes from Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" and other Victorian-era figures can be found in the city of Cambridge.
A life-size Nativity display is a tradition in Columbus presented by State Auto Insurance Companies since the 1950s.
And in Steubenville, there's a Nutcracker Village with 150 nutcrackers, each one 6 feet tall.
