Q. This just came to me. I'm thinking about the whole Bethlehem scene, and curious to why we celebrate Christmas with a Christmas tree. So my question is where, how, when, why did the Christmas tree tradition start. Asked by christy - Wed Dec 24 11:08:27 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. The tradition of the Christmas Tree started in Europe and is first recorded in the 16th century, well into the Christian era. There is no evidence at all of any connection to paganism. The first Christmas trees were put up on Christmas Eve and were decorated with fruit and nuts (now replaced by glass baubles and candy). Christmas Eve used to be counted as the Feast of Adam and Eve. The connection is obvious - the Christmas tree represents the tree in the Garden of Eden.
