Feast of the Ass

The Feast of the Ass (Latin: Festum Asinorum or asinaria festa, French: FÃªte de l'Ã¢ne) was a medieval, Christian feast observed on January 14, celebrating the Flight into Egypt. It was celebrated primarily in France, as a by-product of the Feast of Fools celebrating the donkey-related stories in the Bible, in particular the donkey bearing the Holy Family into Egypt after Jesus's birth.^[1]
