                          About Public Holidays in Belarus

                          Belarus observes Independence Day on July 3 rather than the more commonly expected date, chosen to mark the 1944 liberation of Minsk from Nazi occupation instead of any break from the Soviet Union, since Belarus remained closely tied to Russia after 1991. Both Orthodox and Catholic Christmas and Easter are officially recognized given the country's religiously mixed population.
