Dates come from the official school-calendar publications for Germany, collected by the open-data OpenHolidays project. Last checked on 2026-08-27. They cover public schools; an individual school can add in-service days of its own, so treat this as the frame and the school's own calendar as final.
How Germany sets school holidays
- Each of the sixteen Länder sets its own dates, and the summer breaks are deliberately staggered by a long-running federal-state agreement so the whole country is not on the autobahn in the same fortnight. Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg traditionally go last.
- Beyond the big five breaks (autumn, Christmas, winter, Easter, summer), Länder sprinkle single movable days — Repentance Day in Saxony, post-Ascension bridge days — which appear in the tables below.
- Dates are fixed years in advance, which is why this data already reaches 2030.
