Are holidays moved to a different date, e.g. if they fall on a saturday/sunday/...? Are holidays observed on a different date (is there a substitute holiday), e.g. if they fall on a saturday/sunday/...?
No.
For more or less accurate translations see this page. If the "Comments" column is populated, it contains the actual translation of the Czech title (while the Holiday Name column seems to contain a customary English name of the holiday).
(As for August 21st already listed there, it's not yet part of the legislation in force.)
I'm not completely sure if the R
flag for 09-28
is correct.
The day as such is a religious feast - day of St. Wenceslas (the very first Czech saint, early 10th c., duke of Bohemia) - but the national holiday (see the name ~ "Day of the Czech statehood") officially celebrates the "secular meaning of this originally religious feast": Wenceslas the Přemyslid duke of Bohemia, Wenceslas as national symbol, not Wenceslas as a Christian saint.
(As for August 21st already listed there, it's not yet part of the legislation in force.)
08-12
is listed as important day ("Významné dny"). But as stated in §4 (2): Important days are workdays (Významné dny jsou dny pracovními); so we leave it out.
I'm not completely sure if the R flag for 09-28 is correct.
As the respective law mentions this day as Day of the Czech statehood I would drop the R
flag.
