Show us your local public Christmas tree

I am ashamed to say that, while the USA doesnt start the Christmas season until after Thanksgiving, and quite rightly so in my opinion, here in Vienna celebrations are well under way, with the opening of many Christmas (or Advent) Markets and the turning on of the illuminations this evening, including Chirstmas trees.

Let's see how many different photos of public Christmas trees we can assemble in this thread.

I start off with the tree in Stephansplatz, by the cathedral in the centre of Vienna (Austria). We have several others here, which I shall visit in due course.

Wow you are early.

We did buy Christmas decorations in Salzburg in August, and my wife was interviewed by Austrian radio, who were doing I suppose a funny news item, whilst we were choosing the painted egg Christmas tree decorations. We still have them along with the Angel I brought back from Spain.

Here in Italy we do Cribs (Presepe) and the Christmas tree is frowned on in some quarters.
