Maundy Thursday, or Gründonnerstag, is an important day in Germany, as it marks the beginning of the Easter season. On this day, churches usually hold special services, where the priest washes the feet of 12 people as a symbolic reenactment of Jesus washing the feet of his apostles. A traditional meal of fish is also served to commemorate the Last Supper. Additionally, it is a day of fasting in many parts of Germany.
