In IJsselstein, Michel Mulder has proudly displayed a two-meter high replica of the region’s famed ‘greatest Christmas tree’ in his front yard. This festive tradition has inspired many locals to create their own versions, ranging from puzzles to large replicas. The original structure, a 366-meter tall radio tower, becomes a sight to behold each December with its dazzling lights. Robert van Bekkum, a local enthusiast, has made several replicas, reflecting the community’s affection for the landmark which symbolizes their pride and holiday spirit.
