Every European kid asking why it's called “Palms Sunday” If we bless everything except real palms:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Palm Sunday is a Christian holiday. As you might have guessed from the name, it’s on a Sunday — always the Sunday before Easter. That’s because it’s meant to commemorate Jesus’ arrival in Jerusalem, a week before Easter Sunday.
However, plams doesn't grow up everywhere, so each Christian country adopted their own version.
In the memes I summarize some of the European traditions I know:
North Italy, Slovenia and Croatia: small olive branches are blessed and distributed to the faithfuls at Churches. In Slovenia there are also “butarica”, that is traditionally a bundle of greenery, flowers or colored wood shavings. In Ljubljana, they are made of colored wood shavings, similar to the Polish tradion illustrated below
South Italy: interweaving palm leaves
Germany, Austria, Finland and Hungary: pussy willow or catkin branches
Bulgaria: Willow twigs, something weaved into crowns with other flowers
Poland: the faithful bring to churches their own “palms” generally made from willow branches decorated with evergreen plants colorful and vibrant crepe paper flowers and green bilberry or juniper bushes affixed to the top of dried flowers and colorful dyed grasses.
