L'article explore les origines de la chasse aux œufs de Pâques, une tradition populaire célébrée le jour de Pâques. Il explique que, bien que popularisée après la Seconde Guerre mondiale par l'industrie du chocolat, la tradition remonte à des pratiques plus anciennes. Avant d'être associée à Pâques, l'œuf était un symbole de renouveau printanier chez les Égyptiens et les Perses. L'Église catholique a ensuite adopté l'œuf comme symbole de la résurrection de Jésus. Au Moyen Âge, l'accumulation d'œufs pendant le carême, période où leur consommation était limitée, a conduit à leur utilisation festive à Pâques, à travers des jeux et des offrandes.
