Easter egg tree : ウィキペディア英語版 | Easter egg tree
A German tradition of decorating trees and bushes with Easter eggs is known as the Ostereierbaum, or Easter egg tree. A notable example is the ''Saalfelder Ostereierbaum'' (Saalfeld Easter egg tree) in Saalfeld, Thuringia. == History == The tradition in Germany to decorate the branches of trees and bushes with eggs for Easter is centuries old, but its origins have been lost. The egg is an ancient symbol of life all over the world. Eggs are hung on branches of outdoor trees and bushes and on cut branches inside. The custom is found mostly in Germany and Austria, but also in other German-influenced places such as Ukraine, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Moravia, and the Pennsylvania Dutch region of the United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Easter in Germany )〕 Egg trees are also sometimes decorated on May Day, Christmas, Whitsun, and the summer solstice.〔 Other German Easter traditions include the dressing of public wells as Osterbrunnen, Osterhasen (Easter Hares) and Osterfeuer (Easter bonfires).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=German Easter Traditions )〕
