AFTER THE REVOLUTION

 

After the French Revolution and the Monarchy was overthrown, the new republican government banned Midnight Mass and as a result the people were denied access to the Church Crèches.

Though supporters of the revolution the people of Marseilles were not best please with this decision as they were particularly fond of the church Crèche and as the revolutionaries had denied them access to the church they created "public crèches" these were produced by individuals but displayed for all to see.
