Easter is celebrated in Germany as a traditional religious holiday. There are also records of Germanic folk customs to include hares and giving away colored eggs going back to before the Birth of Christ. Our modern day Easter celebrations likely borrowed some of these customs and the name Easter from the Celtic-Germanic Ostara Festival which celebrated the spring Goddess Ostara.
