From comes the tradition of the crib. 
What is considered the first crib in history (a living crib) was set up by St. Francis of Assisi at Greccio in 1223. However, scenes of the Nativity were already found in Naples in 1025. In Italy, there have been widespread regional presepistiche traditions, such as the Bolognese Nativity scene, the Genoese nativity scene and the Neapolitan nativity scene.
CHRISTMAS TREE
The tradition of the Christmas tree, of Nordic origin, has been widely adopted in Italy too. [2] In 1991, the Christmas Tree of Gubbio, 650 meters high and decorated with over 700 lights, entered the Guinness Book of Primates as the world's tallest Christmas tree.
PIPERS
Typical Italian tradition is instead that of the pipers, or men dressed as shepherds and equipped with Zampogna, who descend from the mountains, playing Christmas music. This tradition, dating back to the 19th century, is particularly widespread in the south of the country.
A description of the pipers Abruzzo is provided by Héctor Berlioz in 1832.
