Whit Monday is a religious public holiday celebrated 50 days after the Orthodox Easter Sunday in Romania. It is a holiday that moves in relation to the date of Easter. The Orthodox Church in Romania uses the Julian calendar to set the date for Easter and therefore the date of all Easter days is different here than in the Gregorian calendar of the Western Christian Church.
This year the day is celebrated June 24, 2024.
As this is a public holiday, expect most stores, banks and services to be closed or have reduced opening hours.
