Would you have known? This is how Austria celebrates Easter
Austria is a country of traditions. Even during the Easter season, there are many ancient Christian and pagan rites that are lovingly preserved, passed down from generation to generation, and celebrated. From Easter bonfires to drumming, from Palm Sunday donkeys to regional culinary delicacies—each state also has its own customs. Read more here about traditional customs in Austria.
Easter is one of the most important church festivals of the year and is a movable feast (whose calendar date varies annually). In preparation for the Feast of the Resurrection comes the 40-day Lenten season, which ends on Maundy Thursday—or, depending on the counting method, on Palm Sunday. At the end of Lent—a period still often marked by self-denial and abstinence—comes Holy Week, which culminates on Easter Sunday.
