420 trees in one place: German family breaks record for 'most decorated Christmas trees'

The Jeromins are known for loving Christmas, and for the past two years they've broken the record for the "most decorated Christmas trees in one place," according to the Record Institute for Germany.

Susanne and Thomas Jeromin broke the record for having 420 trees in just one place, their home in Germany. The Jeromin family said the record proves "there is no other place in the world besides your own four walls where a large number of festively decorated Christmas trees are set up."

The previous record in 2020, set by the same family, was with 350 trees. But how did they decorate and buy so many trees? They start early.

The Jeromin family starts accumulating and decorating their home for the holiday as early as September. The family has become famous for their self-proclaimed "winter wonderland" that dozens would travel to in Rinteln-Volksen, Germany to visit the couple's home.

The family had guests all the way from Japan come to visit their record-breaking home in the past, though those visits stopped due to the coronavirus pandemic.

"It is an open secret that the Jeromin family does not get enough of decorated Christmas trees. And I am always amazed at how much dedication and creativity they bring to decorating and decorating. Every tree looks different, " said Olaf Kuchenbecker during the RID record certificate presentation.
