When are the Christmas holidays in Saarland 2024?

In Saarland, the Christmas holidays 2024 start on Monday, December 23, 2024, and end on Friday, January 4, 2025. This period grants students and teachers a relaxing break before the new calendar year begins and the second half of the school year picks up speed. The decision to start the holidays on a Monday and end them on a Friday fits the usual pattern, using weekends for a smooth transition into and out of the non-school period. This nearly two-week interruption of school life falls during a time marked by various traditions, especially the Christmas holidays and the turn of the year.
