Tradition... They are open on Saturdays,
5 or 6 day work week means Monday is the usual day off; just as doctors take Wednesday.
Actually the Monday was not "Off", they were closed for maintenance and in the olden days to go and buy their materials (grain), etc. Monday being "market day".

Bakeries make most of their money on Weekends, so Monday they are closed to restock, go to the bank, just take that one day off, etc.

Maybe they need to bake all their products on that day, ready for sale?
If they bake on Sunday, they'll never have a day off!

My only guess is that Mondays are the least busy days, OR ... bakers need a break.

none of them are closed on mondays in my city...where you live has a lot to do with when various stores are open. I worked at one for 15 years and it was never closed, ran 7 days a week.
