Gesetzliche Feiertage

Gesetzliche Feiertage are official public holidays recognized by the government, during which businesses, government offices, and many schools are typically closed. They are designated days to observe national, regional, or religious events, such as New Year’s Day or Christmas. These holidays often provide time for rest, reflection, or celebration and are legally protected, ensuring employees may usually take these days off without implications for their pay or employment. The specific dates and holidays can vary depending on the country or region, reflecting cultural or historical significance.
