Immaculate Conception celebrates the Catholic belief in the sinless conception of the Virgin Mary on 8 December, which is exactly 9 months before the feast called Nativity of Mary on 8 September. Incidentally, it is also taught that Mary conceived Jesus in her womb exactly 9 months to the day before Jesus was born on 25 December.
Many in Liechtenstein consider Immaculate Conception a “family day” and spend time with family at home. They also feast, see processions, attend mass, and may watch some fireworks.
