1986 Besson Bierkeller – Alpine Village (Department 56 #56.65405)
The Besson Bierkeller from Department 56’s Alpine Village collection is a vintage lighted porcelain building that evokes the rustic charm of an old-world beer cellar or tavern nestled in snow-dusted Bavarian hills. Introduced in January 1986 and retired in December 1996, this piece features a dark green sloped roof, a two-story structure, a balcony with festive garlands and banners, window-boxes trimmed with greenery, and a warm interior glow when lit. Its classic Alpine architecture and cozy pub-house feel bring character, atmosphere, and European flair to any holiday village layout. Whether displayed among other Alpine-style cottages and taverns, placed beside snow-covered streets, or used as a focal point in a winter village scene, the Besson Bierkeller adds story, nostalgia, and collectible value — a beloved vintage piece for long-time collectors and new enthusiasts alike.
