Romanian President Klaus Iohannis signed a resolution promulgating the Law amending paragraph 1 of Art. 139 of the Romanian Labor Code, reports Basilica.ro.

Thus, Orthodox Romania joins the other 16 EU countries where Good Friday is a non-working day.

Friday of Holy Week is dedicated to the remembrance of the condemnation to death, suffering on the cross and death of Jesus Christ, as well as the removal of His body from the cross and burial.

The law was adopted by the Chamber of Deputies at the end of February. The legislative proposal was presented by the Democratic Union of Hungarians in Romania.

Thus, the Romanian Labor Code establishes the following days as official public holidays: January 1 and 2; January 24 (Day of the Union of Romanian Principalities); Good Friday; first and second Easter days; May 1, June 1 (Children's Day); the first and second days of Pentecost; August 15 (Assumption of the Virgin Mary); November 30 (St. Andrew); December 1 (Romanian National Day); December 25 and 26 (first and second Christmas).

Romania has no official religion, but the vast majority of the population (87%) are Orthodox Christians.

Good Friday - closed

Good Friday is a day off in Protestant Sweden, Denmark and Finland, and in Catholic Spain, Ireland, Germany, and the Netherlands. It is also a public holiday in the UK, Norway, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.

In 2014, Cuba declared Good Friday a national holiday. The government has issued a directive that will make this day a holiday every year. After years of official atheism, Cuba recognized Good Friday as a holiday in 2012 in response to a special request made by Pope Benedict XVI during his visit to the island nation that year. In 2013, Good Friday was recognized as a non-working day, and state television resumed broadcasting the festive service from the Cathedral in Havana. In 2014, the government designated Good Friday as a public holiday.

In Austria, Good Friday is a day off for members of Protestant, Catholic and Evangelical Methodist churches. Non-religious people and representatives of other religious communities have to work on this day.

In Russia, Good Friday is not a day off.

Good Friday in Christianity

In the Catholic Church, this is the only day of the year when the Eucharist is not celebrated. During the day, a Stations of the Cross service takes place, during which the priest and parishioners walk around the 14 “stations” located around the perimeter of each Latin Rite Catholic church. In the evening there is a special service of the Passion of the Lord, which must begin after three o'clock in the afternoon (the time of the Savior's death on the cross). All covers, candles and the cross are removed from the altar. During the service, musical instruments and the ringing of bells are not used as a sign of mourning for the Savior who died on the cross.

In Lutheranism, the pastor wears a black robe on Good Friday. On this day the Eucharist is not celebrated, the organ is silent, no sermons are preached, and the sacrament of confession is not performed. No candles are lit on the altar. The color of the coverings of the pulpit, altar and altar fence is black. The service consists of the singing of spiritual songs, alternating with the reading of gospel fragments dedicated to the execution of Jesus Christ. The congregational prayer is said and the Our Father is sung.

In the Orthodox Church, in remembrance of the saving Passion of Christ, a special service has been established, called “Following the Holy and Saving Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ.” It takes place on Thursday evening. This service arose from the tradition of the Jerusalem Church, to perform a religious procession to places in Jerusalem associated with the Passion of Jesus Christ. During the procession, stops were made during which relevant passages from the Gospel were read.

On Friday afternoon, the Shroud is taken out from the altars of Orthodox churches and placed in the middle of the temple. During Good Friday and Holy Saturday, believers venerate the Shroud.

Romania has a strong musical tradition. They are expressed in original folk music, with a specific modal-melodic structure and rhythm. Romania is a multinational country; there is a mixture of Moldovan, Gypsy, Hungarian and other cultures. Musical culture has absorbed the characteristics of all peoples living on the territory of Romania. A variety of modes are typical for Romanian folklore - from the simplest 3-5-step to complex multi-step systems. The songs are monophonic, with elements of heterophony. Folklore is represented by ritual, lullabies, shepherd's, comic, lyrical songs, epic ballads, laments, etc. One of the most complex and original genres is lyrical doina. There are a variety of folk instrumental tunes, often of an improvisational nature, with rich ornamentation and whimsical rhythm.

There are numerous dance genres, most often these are collective dances - hora, syrba, bryu, invertita, hatsegan. Celebrations with songs and dances (zhok) have long been common in folk life. Musical instruments include winds and strings.

In some places in Romania, the New Year is called “small Christmas.” As soon as the sun went down, a candle made of pure wax was lit in front of the icon of Christ in every house, which was supposed to burn all night. Doors and thresholds in the house, in the premises for livestock, in grain storage facilities were coated with garlic and various types of melted fat. They put the sign of the cross on pets with the same composition and anointed themselves and all family members. According to popular beliefs, in this way one could protect oneself from the wiles of the devil. This evening, like Christmas Eve, was rich in all kinds of carols. One of the most ancient and colorful New Year's customs among the Romanians was plugusorul. In those areas where it was performed, only poor people and smaller boys took part in caroling. After reciting the carol and congratulating the owners of the house, the latter presented the ploughurash, as at Christmas: rolls, nuts, apples, money, etc. So they walked from house to house until midnight. And then, having divided the gifts like brothers and wished each other happiness in the new year, they dispersed.
In Romania, not only religious or national holidays are celebrated; all kinds of festivals, fairs, etc. are held on its territory. In February, Romania hosts the Winter Festival in Sfantu Gheorghe. In April, the International Festival of Contemporary Art in Brasov, the National Spring Festival in Choteni-Maramures.

In September, the International Carp Fishing Competition and the Sibinium music festivals are held in Sibiu. In October, Wine Festivals are held throughout Transylvania, and the Musical Autumn festival is held in Cluj-Napoca. In December there is a traditional Christmas festival in Brasov. Oral folk art emerged in the 15th century, and writing in Romanian began to develop around 1420. In the 19th century, modern literature began to take shape. Hundreds of tribes that passed through the territory of Romania during the era of the Great Migration of Peoples passed on their culture and their original traditions to this land. There are long beaches of the Black Sea, the picturesque Carpathian Mountains, the unique Danube Delta, and many historical places.
