What fo you mean as a bank holiday? It is a religious holiday
It’s a common term in the UK, meaning a holiday where banks are closed, including religious holidays. So what most people know as just a regular holiday.
Not a holiday in Baden-Württemberg (south Germany) 😭
In Bavaria it is.
We do ALL the religious holidays. And there will be mass somewhere all day tomorrow. I have 3 churchbells in hearing distance and they each ring like 20- 30min at the beginning AND end of each service. Probably starting between 6 and 7am tomorrow morning. There will be absolutely no quiet tomorrow and at the end I’ll have bells ringing in my head.
What holiday is it?
Puzzled myself.
Edit: did a search, and I’m guessing this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assumption_of_Mary
Probably a holiday only in Catholic countries, and very likely not in protestant ones.
