Easter rhymes with gluttony and the arrival of spring. The traditional egg hunt delights children and all lovers of sweet treats. Every year, it is the Easter bunny who takes care of hiding delicious chocolate eggs in the gardens. Discover the origin of this legendary bunny.

The Return of Spring

The rabbit always reappears in the fields in spring. It has long been associated with fertility and rebirth. Moreover, the rabbit is also associated with the goddess Eastre, from which Easter (Pâques in English) comes, and who was celebrated at the spring equinox.

A German Legend

It is also in Germany that the legend of the rabbit, or rather the Easter hare, originates. It is said that a disadvantaged mother, unable to offer sweets to her children, decorated eggs which she then hid in the garden on Easter day. While looking for the eggs in the garden, the children saw a hare and thus believed that it was he who laid the eggs.

In some regions, it is Easter bells, returning from Rome at the end of Holy Week, who traditionally bring chocolates on the day they chime again.
