Indulgence feasts (including plenary indulgences, Church festivals) are first of all religious feasts of the local Catholic parishes. However, the most famous indulgence feasts went beyond the borders of the parishes and became an important celebration for neighbouring parishes, regions or even the whole country (Lithuania). Catholic bishops and church founders took great care in establishing indulgence feasts of a particular name; this was very popular especially in the period of the Counter-Reformation. |
