In this year Fronleichnam ("Feast of Corpus Christi") is on the 3th June. But it is an catholic holiday and so an official holiday (with closed shops, offices, schools) only in such German Bundesländer (countries) like Bavaria with a majority of catholics. In Thuringia and Sachsonia it depends on the marjority of catholics in the city or "Landkreis" (county, administrative district).
