Christmas Tree

The custom of erecting a Christmas tree can be historically traced to 15th century Livonia (present-day Estonia and Latvia) and 16th century Northern Germany. According to the first documented uses of a Christmas tree in Estonia, in 1441, 1442, and 1514, the Brothehood of Blackheads erected a tree for the holidays in their brothrhood house in Reval (now Tallinn). At the last night of the celebrations leading up to the holidays,the tree was taken to the Town Hall Square where the members of the brotherhood danced around it.In 1584, the pastor and chronicler Balthasar Russow wrote of an established tradition of setting up a decorated spruce at the market square where the young men “went with a flock of maidens and women, first sang and danced there and then set the tree aflame”. The Christmas tree became widely adopted by the Estonians themselves only in the 19th century.

Christmas tree will definitely cheer up the house and bring in the spirit of Chritmas.
