Originally, the Schwibbogen had no direct connection to the Christmas season, but symbolized light and hope in the dark winter time. The first Schwibbogen was probably built around 1740 in Johanngeorgenstadt, a city that was dominated by mining at the time.The term Schwibbogen comes from architecture. It refers to an arch that is placed between two walls to support them. The Schwibbogen in the form of a wooden candlestick soon became a symbol of the region, where the long winters and hard work underground created a special need for light and community. The first Schwibbogen were made of metal and were often made by the miners themselves. At first they showed motifs from the mining world, such as miners, miners lamps and tools that reflected peoples daily lives.It was not until the 20th century that Schwibbogen began to be used as Christmas decorations. Over time, the motifs changed and Christian symbols such as angels, Mary and Joseph were added. Landscapes and typical scenes from life in the Ore Mountains also found their way into the design.Today, candle arches are an integral part of the Ore Mountains Christmas tradition. Modern candle arches are often illuminated with LED lights and show detailed carvings of villages, churches and traditional figures such as nutcrackers and smokers. They are popular worldwide and for many people are the epitome of Christmas coziness and traditional craftsmanship from the Ore Mountains.
