Seasonal Festivals
Holy Week / Easter
» Events
In
many Spanish, Italian and Portuguese cities the church year
culminates in the "Semana Santa" or "Settimana
Santa" – the ‘Holy Week’ preceding
Easter – and at this time divinely inspired penitents
make their way through the streets of Seville and other cities,
remembering the passion of Christ. If then, at around midnight,
you follow the train of the penitents and believers from the
dark night into the brightly illuminated cathedral of Seville
and hear the powerful organ ringing out to “Dies Irae”
- God’s wrath – then you will find the Easter
revelation opening up for you too, regardless of your religious
convictions.
Try to work something a little different into your Easter holiday program therefore, since it’s too warm for skiing and too cold for swimming in the sea! Visit this page to find the right way to spend your time in the Easter seasonal weather!
