Is Easter Monday a holiday in Europe?

I've been waiting since Thursday or Friday for e-mail responses from a couple places (airline & hotel) in Germany & Lithuania and haven't heard a thing. Now I'm wondering is most places are short-staffed due to a long holiday week-end.

A friend of mine who works in the UK has a long weekend due to the Easter holiday.

YES. We're currently in Zurich, having just returned here from a week in Italy. Yes, things are closed on Easter Monday. You will even find few restaurants and gas stations open, unless you are along a major autoroute.

A check on the website
www.bank-holidays.com indicate that Germany and Lithuania have Easter Monday off.

In France, most offices are on holiday. Retail businesses are more likely to be open.
