The feast of the descent of the Holy Spirit on the apostles, 50 days after Easter.
Rusaliile cad întotdeauna duminica, la șapte săptămâni după Paști, și sunt zi liberă legală în România (duminica și lunea). Bisericile se împodobesc cu ramuri verzi și flori. La Șumuleu Ciuc are loc, de Rusalii, cel mai mare pelerinaj catolic din România.
