Dušičky - November 2 - Czechs remember their dead

Dušičky (Little souls) known as All Soul's Day in English is the time of the year that Czechs remember their dead relatives. Many families visit their loved one's graves and leave burning candles. Although officially this is part of the Catholic liturgical calendar, most Czechs don't imbue this holiday with a particularly deep religious meaning.

Dušičky - Wikipedie, otevřená encyklopedie Vzpomínka na všechny věrné zemřelé, Památka všech věrných zemřelých či lidově dušičky (lat. In commemoratione omnium fidelium defunctorum), která připadá na 2. listopadu, je v římskokatolické církvi dnem liturgického roku, kdy se církev modlí za zemřelé.
