Local public holidays — explicit selection 2

Local holidays are excluded by default. Select only those you have confirmed apply to your workplace, using the official scope and source.

Only within the City of Augsburg; not the surrounding Augsburg district or the rest of Bavaria.

Official source

How the calculation works

Ranked by longest break, then fewest leave days and earliest start. Up to 8 non-overlapping alternatives; each includes at least one public holiday on a weekday.

Calculations stay within the selected calendar year, from 1 January to 31 December. A local holiday counts only when you confirm that it applies to your workplace.

Dates come from the website’s documented public-holiday data. Your employer may still need to approve leave.
