Christmas has been celebrated, as a Christian holiday, since the early middle ages. It succeeded pagan celebrations held previously, which marked the period of the return of longer days (Dec. 21 or 22 being the Winter solstice, in other words offering the shortest daylight of the year).
Celebrations were much more modest in these days and not in the form they have nowadays.
