Historical Background: Sukkot, also known as the Feast of Tabernacles or the Feast of Booths, is a Jewish holiday that commemorates the forty-year period during which the children of Israel wandered in the desert, living in temporary shelters. The festival has biblical origins and is one of the three pilgrimage festivals, along with Passover and Shavuot.

What People Do:
In Germany, while Sukkot is celebrated by members of the Jewish community, it generally does not have widespread public visibility or acknowledgment compared to some other countries with larger Jewish populations. Nevertheless, those observing maintain both historical practices and adapt traditions to suit their local environment.
