Traditionally this is normally attributed to Prince Albert of Sax-Coburg (Quenn Victoria's husband). An engraving of the royal family published around the 1850's was widely distributed showing them around a decorated Christmas tree at Osborne. This led to it's widespread popularity in Britain and also spread to the USA. The tradition was already known in the Royal family however from the middle of the 18th century again introduced through the Germanic connection of Queen Charlotte of Mecklenberg-Strelitz George IIIs wife. Victoria was already aware of the tradition before she met Albert. The first decorated trees were mentioned in 16th century Germany although the pagan tradition of trees pre dates Christianity .
