On the occasion of Easter, Minister of Culture Claudia Plakolm appeals to Austrians to live a confident Christianity and to strengthen the importance of Christian traditions in the country.
Minister of Culture Claudia Plakolm (ÖVP) advocates for a "confident Christianity" in Austria on the occasion of Easter: "We must stop being estranged from our faith and the Christian traditions that determine our coexistence and the calendar." Easter is the highest festival in Christianity and therefore a good occasion to bring its significance for this country to mind.
Plakolm advocates for confident Christianity
80 percent of people said that Austria is a Christian country and should remain so. Plakolm takes this as an opportunity for a call: "Let us live our faith and our traditions confidently. Austria is a Christian country and that should be felt and seen."
