In winter, while all the trees are wilted, their pine trees are still green. Therefore, the ancients considered pine as the tree of life. On the winter solstice, they decorate the fir with fruit, flowers and wheat. For the first time, the pine tree is known as the Christmas tree in Germany. Legend has it that at the end of the seventh century, St. Boniface (born in 680) tried to convince the Taoists that the oak tree was not a holy tree by cutting an oak tree. When the oak tree fell, it crushed the creature beneath its path, except for a small pine tree. From then on, the meaning of the tree was the tree of Jesus. So at Christmas, the Germans had traditionally planted small pines. It is thought that Martin Luther, the leader of the Protestant Reformation, was the first to light candles on Christmas trees. When he returned home on a winter night near Christmas, he was stunned at the beauty of the light from the stars shining on the branches of fir trees in front of his house. He reconstructed this scene by attaching the candles to the branches of the Christmas tree in the house. By the 11th century, the Christmas tree was also given the symbol of a heavenly tree. This explains why people are hanging up red apple trees, to evoke Adam and Eve's forbidden fruit. By the 14th century, the Christmas tree was attached to a star at the top of the tree. This is the symbol of Bethlehem star in the sky when the baby was born.
