A History Lesson
It was not until the late Middle Ages that Christmas trees were first set up, 1419 in Freiburg is documented as being the first. The original trees were decorated with apples, nuts and gingerbread, which were to be eaten on New Year's Day. Gradually this tradition spread and became more popular. Most of the trees were placed outdoors in a similar fashion to maypoles, which is why people sometimes referred to the early Christmas tree as the Christmas pole.
The period between the 25th of November and Christmas was a time of fasting in which only special food and drink, such as gingerbread were consumed. The last two days, the 23rd and 24th were especially strict, only dried bread and soup would be served!
