The first Christmas trees appeared at the end of the 15th century. In 1492, churches in France were decorated with them, and then this custom spread throughout Europe. In Poland, fir, pine, spruce and even mistletoe branches were used to decorate houses. It was believed that the "topping out" (as this was the name of the branches preceding the Christmas tree ) protects the house against evil powers and charms.
The Christmas tree as a Christmas tree appeared in Poland only during the partitions. At first, they were decorated with apples, gingerbread and nuts, and over time they began to decorate it with handmade decorations, colorful feathers and candles.
