Christmas Tree

Christmas trees are a popular tradition associated with Christmas. An evergreen coniferous tree is covered with decorations and lights, and displayed. often in people's homes. When Christmas trees are used at home, it is a common custom for presents (sometimes including presents brought by Santa Claus) to be placed under the tree.

Traditionally, Christmas trees were not set up until Christmas Eve (December 24th), and were taken down after Twelfth Night (January 6th). However, with the modern commercialization of Christmas, trees are usually set up earlier, particularly in shops (some shops set up their trees as early as October).

Although it can not be proved, it is thought that the Christmas tree traditions has its roots in pre-Christian Yule traditions. It is known that in the 16th century Bremen (in Germany), a small fir was decorated with fruit, nuts, pretzels and paper flowers and erected in the guild-house. In the following years, the custom spreadly slowly at first, by eventually to Austria, Russia and France. The Christmas tree was introduced to Britain by the German wife of King George III.
