Background to the regulation of Sunday openings
But what is actually behind Sunday shopping? These are part of a legal regulation on shop opening times in Germany, which allows shops to open on a maximum of four Sundays a year. Schleswig-Holstein also adheres to this regulation, with one exception: spa, recreational and tourist resorts can be exempt from the sales ban, which benefits Schenefeld as a popular destination. [News.de](https://www.news.de/amp/lokales/859052653/verkaufsoffener-sonntag-in-schenefeld-in-pinneberg-heute-am-26-10-2025-na real-dates-and-opening-hours-for-sunday-opening-which-cities-in-schleswig-holstein-are-currently-open-for-sales/1/) reports that this regulation has its historical roots in the 19th century, where shops did not open on Sundays. Over time, Sunday was legally established as a day of rest.
In Germany, the regulations for Sunday opening vary depending on the federal state. In other European countries such as Poland, shops are open on many Sundays, while France and Italy have different regulations. Fachanwalt.de explains that the discussion about Sunday opening also includes economic and social aspects, as it can both secure jobs and stimulate retail.
In Schenefeld, it's worth paying a visit on Sunday when shopping is open, not only to shop but also to enjoy a lively atmosphere. Maybe one or two of you will even find a new “children’s hero” in the local shops!
