Advent wreaths are very popular in Germany. I suppose almost every household has one during Christmas time. 1839 the theologian Johann Hinrichs Wichern was the founder of the “Adventskranz”. He looked after poor children and because they asked every day when is Christmas, he took a big wood wheel and fixed 20 red candles and four white ones on it. The red candles stand for the days and the white candles stand for the last four Sundays before Christmas.
I saw really nice Advent wreaths at Blumen Bergine in pastel colours.
