The first nutcracker is more than 2000 years. Long before the German Nutcrackers that are so popular today, the ancient Greek, Aristotle, invented a type of device to help crack the shells of nuts.

The first Christmas nutcrackers were made in Germany around 1870. Although the nutcracker is most often depicted as a solider, they were also made to depict other authority figures, such as kings.
