Will everything be closed in Austria (Vienna) on Dec. 26th?

Question

I've spent the 26th in Italy before and nearly everything was closed. Does the same happen in Austria? I believe it's a national holiday there as well.

(will it be worthwhile to visit the 26th? What is the last day of Christmas markets? the 24th?)

Answer 1

Yes it`s a national holiday, so all shops are closed. But the cristmas markets are all open. The last days of the cristmas markets are in the first week in January.

Answer 2

Yes, everything! The entire continent of Europe is closed.

Answer 3

Shops will defenitely be closed on the 26th and some Christmas Markets too. Shops reopen on the 27th, but then most markets will be gone or changed into New Years Markets.

We are a catholic Country and observe the catholic holidays.

And, yes, I know, it sucks!
