Easter in Oberlausitz
The celebration of Jesus Christi's resurrection and the beginning of spring has a special meaning in the Saxon Oberlausitz. It is the first big festival in the year's cycle.
Many customs that are of pagan origin like the Easter singing, Easter shooting or Easter water fetching have been kept and cultivated for centuries.
The Easter rider's procession is worldwide unequalled.
Already before the actual festival are you able to admire the art of Easter egg decoration and buy the little treasures at the Easter markets.
