Gingerbread Advent Calendar

24 doors with exquisite gingerbread and pastry specialities behind them: This Advent calendar from Lebkuchen-Schmidt really packs a punch! It's a great way to get through the time until Christmas Eve, because you can look forward to the next delicacy behind the door every day.

The large, fold-out Advent calendar with a great Christmas motif is also pleasing to the eye and can be a wonderful part of the decoration in your own home. Or you can give the calendar as a gift to gingerbread fans in your family, just as you like!

Advent calendars have been known since the end of the 19th century. In the early days, they were simple ways to count down the time until Christmas: With lines on the wall, a candle that was burned each day until the next of the 24 lines, or with 24 pictures that were hung up one by one.

Advent calendars with little doors to open have been around since the 1920s, originally containing special little pictures. It was not until the 1930s that Advent calendars with contents (such as chocolate or biscuits) appeared. Today, there are Advent calendars with all kinds of fillings - but the one from Lebkuchen-Schmidt is definitely the tastiest!
