I have one that I picked up at Target (of all places!) a few years back, but I never knew their name or history. Thanks for solving the mystery!

My mother-in-law has a beautiful old Christmas pyramid inherited by her mum (from Berlin) and my son was fascinated by it this year, but the giant one in Texas is out of this world, I have never seen anything like it!

I have always wondered what those were called. I have been wanting one since I first saw National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. Now I know the name. You don’t know how happy I am. How cool that they have such a big one.

So glad you all enjoyed Fredericksburg! I really like the second shot…it gives a sense of the pyramid’s height. I read somewhere that this is the largest Christmas pyramid in the U.S.
