Tip - Embedding School Breaks and Holidays

Would you like to have this year’s school breaks and business holidays in your calendar? The website https://www.schulferien.org allows you to download the annual break/holiday schedule for Germany as iCal files. You can then import these files into your mailbox.org calendar.

More and more regional trash disposal services in Germany are beginning to offer their schedules in a digital format for users to download as iCal files. Simply check the website for your trash disposal service or your region. Also there are many similar services for public holidays.

Please create a new calendar to import such external calendars, do not use the main calendar!

Example: import an iCal-file (from schulferien.org)

  • download the appropriate file

import schoolbreak data into your mailbox.org secure calendar

  • open your calendar in your account and choose the calendar, you want to import to. Click onto the menu sign and choose "import". You will be asked for the file to import.
