Captions Happy Easter! 🐥 Swedish Easter celebrations are just around the corner.
The Church of Sweden considers Easter the most important Christian holiday of the year. Churches across the country welcome people to observe Easter over several days. ⛪
Others will celebrate Easter without setting foot in church – a secular approach that goes for most traditions in Sweden. For many, it’s a chance to get together with family and loved ones over traditional food. 👨🦰 👶 👧 👩🦱 👴 👵
A traditional Easter lunch often consists of a variety of pickled herring, gravlax and smoked salmon. 😋 Some adults like to down the fish with a shot of schnapps.
And then there are eggs, of course – a centrepiece in many Swedish Easter meals. Often decorated beforehand by children. 🥚
Are you celebrating Easter, and how? 💛

Shorter version Swedish Easter celebrations are near! 🐰
Churches across the country welcome people to observe Easter over several days. But for many, Easter is first & foremost a chance to get together with family & loved ones over traditional food. Hand-painted eggs are a given! Glad påsk! 💙 💛
