Schwibbogen - Candle ArchesIlluminating the windows of numerous homes and businesses in the Erzgebirge
at Christmastime, these arch-shaped candelabras have become an
inseparable part of the holiday decorations of this Saxon region.
The first predecessor of Candle Arches (Schwibbogen) was manufactured in
1726 from wrought iron. The German name Schwibbogen refers to a type of
arch constructed in Gothic times when an arch between two walls was called
"Schwebebogen" (floating arch).
The look goes back to a tradition of miners, who hung their burning pit lamps
semi-circularly on the pit entry hole before they started their last shift before
Christmas. The Candle Arch expresses the longing of light by the miners who
did not see very much daylight during their workdays. "Gluck Auf!"
Many of these renowned Ore Mountain firms also make beautiful
German Candle Pyramids which may be found here...
