1999 “Hear Ye, Hear Ye” – Heritage Village Accessory (Department 56 #56.55523)

The “Hear Ye, Hear Ye” accessory from Department 56’s Heritage Village collection captures a festive village moment with a small jester figure proudly displaying a banner in a snowy street scene—perfect for adding personality and movement to your Christmas village layout. Introduced in December 1999 and retired in December 2001, this charming porcelain piece features hand-painted detail and a classic winter-street feel.
Small in size but full of character, this accessory pairs beautifully with buildings and other figure sets from the Heritage Village series. It brings storytelling, nostalgic charm and collector appeal to your holiday décor display.
