If you are planning your holidays at Lake Caldaro, it might be important to know when there are national and religious holidays
The 25th of April and the 2nd of June are national holiday in Italy. The one in April commemorates Italy's liberation from Fascism and the victory of the Resistance. The 2nd of June, however, is the Republic Day and remembers the foundation of the Italian Republic in 1946. On official holidays most shops and public offices remain closed - on religious holidays processions and celebrations take place in the single villages.
Furthermore, starting in 2026, Italy will have a new public holiday on the 4th of October, St. Francis of Assisi's Day. This brings the number of national public holidays to 13.
