How was Christmas celebrated in 1500 to 1600s?
During the 1400's and 1500's, the birth of Jesus was a popular subject of most artists. The popularity of Christmas continued to grow until the Reformation, a religious movement of the 1500's. During the Reformation, many people began to consider Christmas a pagan celebration because it included nonreligious customs (and indeed, was actually based on many pagan winter celebrations that had been outlawed by the Church, but were still dear to the hearts of the people). During the 1600's, because of the growing popularity of Protestantism, Christmas was outlawed in England, and in parts of the English colonies in America. So, in fact, Christmas wasn't celebrated during that time at all, and if it was, people did so in secret.
