Bank closing day

Bank Closing Day in Denmark, known as "Banklukkedag," is a public holiday observed on the 5th of June. This day marks the anniversary of the Danish Constitution, which was signed in 1849, establishing Denmark as a constitutional monarchy. On this day, banks and many other businesses are closed to allow employees to participate in celebrations and reflect on the country's democratic heritage. It is a day of national pride, often marked by political speeches, family gatherings, and various public events. The holiday also coincides with Father's Day in Denmark, making it a day of double celebration for many families.
