About this calendar
In 2027, Germany observes 19 public holidays, beginning with New Year's Day on and ending with St. Stephen's Day on . These are official days on which government offices, banks, schools, and most businesses are closed.
Holidays here include a mix of fixed dates (such as New Year's Day and national independence days) and variable dates (such as religious holidays that follow lunar or ecclesiastical calendars). Variable holidays may shift by 1–2 days from year to year.
German law treats Monday through Saturday as potential working days, but almost all offices run Monday to Friday, most on a 40-hour week. One thing that surprises people: a public holiday that lands on a Saturday or Sunday is simply gone for that year. There is no substitute day, which is why German holiday counts feel generous on paper and stingier in practice.
