If we count correctly, Germany has only one national holiday. All other holidays are either state holidays, or (in the case of Peace Day, which only exist in the town of Augsburg), city holidays. Because Germany's constitution attributes cultural affairs to the federal states, each state has its own laws concerning holidays, and they thus differ from state to state.
