The Origins of Advent Calendars

The Advent calendar’s history is fascinating. It dates back to the 19th century in Germany, where Lutherans used to mark the days of Advent leading up to Christmas with chalk on their doors. The concept evolved, and the first printed Advent calendar was created in the early 20th century. This calendar had 24 windows, each concealing a festive image. Today, Advent calendars come in a wide variety of forms and offer a daily surprise, from small chocolates to toys and beauty products.
