I just checked. It isn't. It's called "Allhelgonadagen" "All Saints Day". Historically I don't think the powers that be gave a rats ass about the theses or doctrine, but they sure did not like dividing power with bishops and popes ... so the Catholics had to take a hike (several hundred years ago). But they left all the good stuff behind (name's day for kids, for example). All Saints is one of the things left.
