What did Martin Luther have to say about Christmas trees?
The most common legend about the first Christmas tree is about Martin Luther, and his walk through a forest in Riga, where he spied the stars shining through the prickly boughs of an evergreen tree. Supposedly, Martin Luther brought the tree home and decorated it with candles to simulate the effect of stars. Or to explain to his children how stars twinkled. Or maybe he decorated it with lights in order to illustrate the "majesty of Christ's birth." However, sadly this is only legend, and there is nothing in Luther's writings to support it.
