Easter Celebration

Easter is an important festival in Christianity, commemorating the Resurrection of Christ. It is celebrated every year on a Sunday. Easter is preceded by the forty days of Lent. Easter is a Christian holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. According to Christian history, Jesus was crucified on a Friday (Good Friday) and rose again three days later on Easter Sunday.

Eggs are associated with Easter because eggs, as well as milk and meat, were forbidden during Lent. The remaining eggs were eaten on the day before Lent, Fat Tuesday, also known as Pancake Tuesday. The eggs accumulated during Lent were then eaten at Easter.

In other European countries, the messengers of Easter are not bells: in Tyrol, it is the chicken. In Switzerland, a cuckoo clock. In Germany, a white rabbit. In the Anglo-Saxon countries, a hare.
