    I thought Baden-Wuerttemberg was the county with most public holidays (protestant & catholic), but browsing the 2006 overview yesterday (to finally take advantage of the Brueckentage 😉 ), I realised we don’t even get Rosenmontag off. 😛
    Nevertheless, I fear they cut holidays short, but don’t ask me which they took.

    You might consider feiertagskalender.ch as well. This lets you get even local public holidays in ical format, to integrate into iCal, Sunbird (or with some hiccups) Outlook.
