Epiphany Makes a Comeback

A campaign to restore celebration of the Epiphany as a national holiday in Poland has drawn support from more than half a million citizens. Mayor Jerzy Kropiwnicki of Lodz has announced that he has collected over 550,000 signatures on a petition to restore the holiday on January 6.

The petitions have been presented to the speaker of Poland's parliament, Bronislaw Komorowski. January 6 was a national holiday in Poland until 1960, when the holiday was abolished by the country's former Communist government.
