I live in Dresden, Germnay not very far from the Erzgebirge(this is an area in the southeast of Germany). I have become fascinated with the woodwork that is done in this area(this area is well known for its Christmas decorations and ornaments). If anyone is familiar with the type of woodwork from the Erzgebirge could you please tell me if this is woodcarving or whittling(simple called schnitzen in german). Any info would be greatly appreciated.
