Maundy Thursday

As Wikipedia told me: In the Christian calendar, Maundy Thursday — also called Holy Thursday and, in the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Churches, Great Thursday — is the feast or holy day on the Thursday before Easter that commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with the Apostles.
Saarbrücken heralds the Easter holidays with nice decorations that you can find along the Bahnhofstrasse.
I am going to give you introductions to German Easter traditions from tomorrow on, when we are going to have the first "real" holiday: Good Friday.
