The Danish heart, or “julehjerte,” is a traditional Christmas decoration in Denmark. Made from woven paper, it symbolizes love and togetherness during the holiday season. Often hung on Christmas trees, the hearts can be filled with small treats or left as simple ornaments, blending Danish tradition with festive cheer.

In Denmark, decorating the Christmas tree with real candles is a cherished tradition that brings warmth and hygge to the holidays. Lit on Christmas Eve, the candles create a magical glow as families gather to sing carols like “Glade Jul” and exchange gifts. This intimate tradition reflects Denmark’s love for togetherness and the beauty of simple moments.

The statue of Holger Danske, located in the underground passages of Kronborg Castle in Denmark, represents a legendary Danish hero said to awaken and defend the country in times of need. Created in 1907 by sculptor Hans Peder Pedersen-Dan, it symbolizes Danish patriotism and resistance.

På søndag er det 1. søndag i advent, og så skal der traditionen tro fyres op under juletræet på Rådhuspladsen kl. 16.

Siden 1914 har det store juletræ været en fast tradition kun afbrudt ét enkelt år under 2. verdenskrig.

Vi henter stadig træet i Gribskov, som man også gjorde dengang, og det var oprindeligt en sjælden chance for byens borgere til at opleve julelys - længe før elektrisk belysning fandtes i de fleste hjem.

I dag er træet fortsat et samlingspunkt og et tydeligt signal om, at en lys og stemningsfuld juletid er begyndt.

Udover lysene bliver det cirka 20 meter høje juletræ også pyntet med 100 julehjerter fra Børnenes Kontor.
