You are probably looking for the online version of Hermann Grotefend, Zeitrechnung des Deutschen Mittelalters und der Neuzeit
http://bilder.manuscripta-mediaevalia.de/gaeste//grotefend/grotefend.htm
For the most common movable feasts use the calculator and insert the year you are interested in. This will not tell you the weekdays though. For those you have to select the page "Jahreskalender" that with the tables for all possible Easter dates ( a total of 45 days ranging from March 22 to April 25). The page includes a calculator that will tell you the Easter date for the year you are looking for. Using this specific date select the appropriate table. There you should find all the information you are looking for.
Of course the paper version of Grotefend's Taschenbuch der Zeitrechnung will also work: https://archive.org/details/taschenbuchderz01grotgoog

Part of your request is easy. Pentecost is always a Sunday. It’s eight weeks after Easter/Pascha.

I used to know of a website that very easily indicated the dates and days of the week that moveable religious feasts like Easter and Pentecost fell on in any year one wished to calculate. I’ve lost track of it, however, and I wonder if anyone can point me to such a converter. In particular, I’m trying to find the date and day of the week on which Pentecost was celebrated in 1432 and 1435.
Cheers,
Jim
