Days listed but not counted in the 13 above

These days appear on many calendars as public holidays, and sources genuinely disagree about them. Where they conflict, we follow the official government or statutory source and name it below, so a day is only counted in the totals on this page if the law actually gives it to you. That is why our figure can be lower than the one you see elsewhere.

Saint Joseph's Day (Josefstag)Not a day off
What the law says: A Landespatron (patron saint) day, not a statutory holiday under § 7 of the Arbeitsruhegesetz.
In practice: Schools and many public offices close in the relevant Bundesländer, and the Education Ministry lists these days separately as school-free. Private-sector employees have no legal right to the day off.
Source followed: Arbeitsruhegesetz § 7; bmb.gv.at (Festtage der Landespatrone)
Easter Sunday (Ostersonntag)Not a day off
What the law says: Not listed among the 13 statutory holidays in § 7 of the Arbeitsruhegesetz.
In practice: Listed here for completeness. It always falls on a Sunday, so no working day is lost.
Source followed: Arbeitsruhegesetz § 7
Saint Florian's Day (Florianitag)Not a day off
What the law says: A Landespatron day, not a statutory holiday under § 7 of the Arbeitsruhegesetz.
In practice: School-free in Upper Austria and observed locally, but private-sector employees have no legal entitlement.
Source followed: Arbeitsruhegesetz § 7; bmb.gv.at (Festtage der Landespatrone)
Pentecost (Pfingstsonntag)Not a day off
What the law says: Whit Sunday is not listed among the 13 statutory holidays in § 7. Whit Monday is.
In practice: Listed here for completeness. It always falls on a Sunday, so no working day is lost.
Source followed: Arbeitsruhegesetz § 7
Saint Rupert's Day (Rupertitag)Not a day off
What the law says: A Landespatron day, not a statutory holiday under § 7 of the Arbeitsruhegesetz.
In practice: School-free in Salzburg and widely observed there, but not an Arbeitsruhegesetz holiday.
Source followed: Arbeitsruhegesetz § 7; bmb.gv.at (Festtage der Landespatrone)
Saint Martin's Day (Martinstag)Not a day off
What the law says: A Landespatron day, not a statutory holiday under § 7 of the Arbeitsruhegesetz.
In practice: School-free in Burgenland and widely marked, but private employees have no legal right to it.
Source followed: Arbeitsruhegesetz § 7; bmb.gv.at (Festtage der Landespatrone)
Saint Leopold's Day (Leopolditag)Not a day off
What the law says: A Landespatron day, not a statutory holiday under § 7 of the Arbeitsruhegesetz.
