In Bavaria, the Assumption of Mary on 15 August is a public holiday only in municipalities with a mainly Catholic population. The state statistics office decides which these are, on the basis of the latest census. In April 2025 the Bavarian State Office for Statistics informed the town of Tirschenreuth that, on the basis of the 2022 census, the day remains a holiday there from 2025. In 2019 the newspaper Abendzeitung counted 1,704 of the 2,056 Bavarian municipalities, among them Munich and Augsburg.
