The shortest day of the year, the longest night: December 21. Science expert Christian Mähr from “Krone” has a tip for the long evening before the longest night: bake gingerbread!
Much has been written about the birth of Jesus on December 24, not only about the date, but also about the year. Both are most likely wrong. It was not the year zero – if only because there is no such thing as a year zero: the year 1 BC. is one year before the year 1 AD. It talks about different years, a little earlier, a little later, whatever… Anyone who wants can read this anywhere. The debates over Jesus’ birth date of December 24 are, once you dig into them, surprisingly boring. There are different schools with different explanations.
