Christmas in Germany

A German Weihnachten

Christmas in Germany (Weihnachten) is celebrated from December 1 to January 6. On my Christmas pages you will find out about German Christmas traditions and customs as well as delicious German Christmas baking and cookie recipes.

Did you know that the Christmas tree (Tannenbaum, Christbaum) actually arrived in America and England from Germany? In fact many Germany Christmas traditions have been adopted, or should I say adapted, from Germany.

Over the next few weeks, I will be adding more pages which will include:

Christmas baking recipes: Christmas biscuits (cookies) which are known as Weihnachtsplätzchen. Be warned, these are not for those on a diet, but are very delicious and very moorish.

German Christmas Calendar: Christmas countdown with important dates.

German Advent:

German Christmas markets:

and so much more, so don't forget to come back and visit. Better still, subscribe to my blog to ensure you don't miss my recipes for Lebkuchen, Plätzchen, Stollen and other tasty treats.

See you soon!
