German Unity Day / Tag der Deutschen Einheit is the German national holiday, celebrated annually on the 3rd of October as a public holiday.

It commemorates German reunification in 1990 when the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) joined the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany), so that for the first time since 1945 there existed a single German state.
