Historical backgrounds

Did you know that until the end of the 19th century it was common for shops to be open seven days a week and up to 18 hours a day? The first restrictions came around 1900, and in 1919 Sunday was officially established as a day of rest, with some exceptions in the shop closing law. In comparison, some Eastern European countries, such as Hungary and the Czech Republic, have significantly more liberal regulations. In Austria there is a general ban on opening shops on Sundays - except for petrol stations and shops in train stations.
