Good Friday, known as "Karfreitag" in German, is a significant Christian observance in Liechtenstein that marks the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. This day falls on the Friday before Easter Sunday and is part of the Holy Week.
The historical roots of Good Friday are embedded in Christian theology, commemorating the day of Jesus' death on the cross, which is central to Christian beliefs about salvation and atonement. In Liechtenstein, a predominantly Catholic country, this day has been observed for centuries as a solemn occasion.
Traditionally, church services play a central role on Good Friday. The liturgy on this day is marked by austerity and reflection. Churches may hold special services that include reading of the Passion story from the Gospels, veneration of the cross, and communion services. It's common for church altars to be left bare or draped with black cloth to symbolize mourning.
