Easter Week in <\/strong>Andalucia<\/strong> is one of the most deeply rooted traditions in Spain and each year attracts thousands of faithful who come to fervently experience the most popular religion. All the elements combine to create the Easter week aroma that impregnates the villages and cities of the south; that perfect, divine mix of incense and orange blossom. Easter Week<\/strong> is the time to experience the thrill of the profound and sharp ton\u00e1<\/em> flamenco musical form of a beautiful saeta<\/em> religious song or the absolute silence of a respectful crowd before the carved pieces that are carried through the streets in a state of penitence. Everything surrounding this tradition so full of art and beauty.<\/p>\n

Andalucia<\/u>\u00a0is the most outstanding part of Spain because of its particular vision of this celebration, executed in such an intense manner. Each procession has its own particular feature. So, here are some moments that, for their singular emotional charge and beauty, we recommend you do not miss.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Easter Week processions in Andalucia<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/b>1.\u00a0El Cautivo de M\u00e1laga (The Captive of Malaga)<\/h2>\n
\"El

El Cautivo de M\u00e1laga – cr\u00e9dito malagahoy.es<\/p><\/div>\n

Nuestro Padre Jes\u00fas Cautivo de M\u00e1laga (Our Lord Jesus, the Captive of Malaga)<\/b> is the most revered image in the province. This work by sculptor Jos\u00e9 Gabriel Mart\u00edn Sim\u00f3n<\/b> gathers over a million people every year in the streets of the capital of the Costa del Sol. During the procession, the Lord of M\u00e1laga’s characteristic white tunic moves in such a way that it looks like it is really walking.\u00a0 If you come to the province, make sure you’re here on Easter Monday<\/b> so you can contemplate the beauty of this sculpture and all the devotion that surrounds it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2.\u00a0La “Madrug\u00e1” de Sevilla (The “Dawn” of Seville)<\/h2>\n
\"La

La \u201cMadrug\u00e1\u201d de Sevilla – cr\u00e9dito sevillaessence.com<\/p><\/div>\n

The “Dawn” of Seville<\/b> takes place overnight from Holy Thursday to Good Friday<\/b> and is the most special time during Holy Week. Two extreme devotion Virgins come out onto the street: one is the Esperanza Macarena (Our Lady of Hope Macarena),<\/b> the other the Esperanza de Triana (Our Lady of Hope, Triana).<\/b> The faithful wait all night, especially for these two images. Another unmissable procession is that of the Great Power, called the \u201cLord of Seville”,<\/b> which draws the looks and prayers of all Seville in its path.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3.\u00a0The Legionaries of M\u00e1laga<\/h2>\n
\"Los

Los Legionarios de M\u00e1laga – Cr\u00e9dito: klublu \/ Shutterstock.com<\/p><\/div>\n

This procession is the most colourful and well-known in the province. It takes place on Holy Thursday<\/b> and, in the morning, the 3rd Legion Tercio Don Juan de Austria of the Spanish Legion lands. After lighting the Christ of Mena<\/b> and once night has fallen, legionaries accompany this procession to the sound of military anthems. This is a must- visit spot if you are in M\u00e1laga during Holy Week.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4.\u00a0<\/span>The Silence of Granada<\/h2>\n
\"Las<\/a>

El Silencio de Granada<\/p><\/div>\n

This procession is one of the most beautiful in Andalucia, not only for the quality of the image of the crucified Christ, but also by the unique setting of the city of Granada. <\/b>At the foot of the Alhambra, on the slope of the Darro,<\/b> can be seen this solemn float. One of the most outstanding features is the silence kept by both the penitent and the faithful in its path, only broken by the sound of the drum. Both the public and private lighting on its way is switched off<\/b> so the image illuminated only by candlelight.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.\u00a0El Rico de M\u00e1laga<\/h2>\n
\"El

El Rico de M\u00e1laga – cr\u00e9dito elmalaguita.es<\/p><\/div>\n

Holy Wednesday<\/b> is a very special day in the capital of the Costa del Sol. At night “El Rico”<\/b>, a Nazarene work by sculptor Jos\u00e9 Navas Parejo<\/b>, goes out in a procession. Legend has it that, during the reign of Charles III of Spain, a great plague struck the city, leaving the float without men to carry it. Some prisoners were released from prison to carry it and were then taken back to their cells. For this reason, every year, a man is released from prison by the image during Holy Week<\/b> and blesses all people in M\u00e1laga thanks to an articulated arm. Don’t miss this procession if you are on the Costa del Sol during Holy Week.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6.\u00a0The Borriquita of C\u00e1diz<\/h2>\n
\"La

La Borriquita de C\u00e1diz<\/p><\/div>\n

Palm Sunday<\/b> is a special day of Holy Week, especially for children. In C\u00e1diz, there is a procession for “la Borriquita”<\/b> which was the first confraternity to leave from a church in the city. Children get together with olive branches and palms and accompany the float symbolising the entry of Jesus into Nazareth. Don’t miss this beautiful procession if you spend a few days on the coast of C\u00e1diz.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

7.\u00a0La Holy Supper in Huelva<\/h2>\n
\"La

La Sagrada Cena de Huelva – cr\u00e9dito: malagahoy.es<\/p><\/div>\n

The most brotherly and fervent area in Huelva is El Polvor\u00edn,<\/b> from where the Huelva Holy Supper procession leaves. Palm Sunday<\/b> is the day on which the capital of the province represents that significant New Testament scene. Founded in 1948 by a group of town hall officials, this step brings together a large number of the faithful every year to come and watch it leave. If you’re in Huelva during Holy Week, don’t miss one of its most significant events.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

8.\u00a0The Christ of the Gypsies in Granada<\/h2>\n
\"El

El Cristo de los gitanos Granada<\/p><\/div>\n

The Christ of the Gypsies in Granada<\/b> is one of the more striking images in the area in which the procession passes and because of the tradition which surrounds it. Sacromonte<\/b> is a beautiful and unique area of the city, and at the foot of it is the Alhambra. As they pass, gypsies light fires and sing flamenco to the image of their most fervent devotion. A procession definitely worth seeing if you pass through Granada<\/b> during Holy Week.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

9.\u00a0Passion Week in Antequera<\/h2>\n
\"Semana

Semana de Pasi\u00f3n en Antequera<\/p><\/div>\n

Antequera is one of the Andalusian cities with the most religious tradition. The town has 33 religious buildings, including monasteries, churches and chapels,<\/b> assets which mix well with the beauty of its surroundings. To all this we must add that Antequera is home to Andalusian goldsmiths who have participated in the work of countless floats throughout the region. If you are in the province of M\u00e1laga for Holy Week, come to Antequera.<\/b> The solemnity of these floats and the size of their images will give you fond memories of this Spanish tradition.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

10.\u00a0The Virgin of Zamarrilla in M\u00e1laga<\/h2>\n
\"Las<\/a>

La Virgen de Zamarrilla M\u00e1laga<\/p><\/div>\n

The Virgin of Zamarrilla<\/b> is one of the best-known and most widely-followed images in the city, especially due to its legend. It is said that a bandit entered the church fleeing the Civil Guard and hid under the skirts of the Mother of God. When the Guard left, the villain, in gratitude, drove a white flower with a dagger into the chest of the Virgin, turning it red. If you are in M\u00e1laga for Holy Week, don’t miss this procession on Holy Thursday<\/b> where you can see all the iconography that surrounds this legend for yourself.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

11. Jesus Nazarene and Dolores Coronada in \u00c1lora<\/h2>\n
\"Las<\/a>

Jes\u00fas Nazareno y Dolores Coronada en \u00c1lora<\/p><\/div>\n

One of the most spectacular moments and that attracts more visitors happens at noon during Holy Friday, when \u201cLa Despedida\u201d takes part.\u00a0 In this act the bearers of throne of Jesus Nazarene and Dolores Coronada, with only 8 tormentors, face to face, knee down three times in a way of farewell in front of the astonished look of the attendees. It stands out that each throne is carried by approximately 60 persons, but like we have pointed out, the act is carried out with 4 in the front and 4 in the back.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

12. The Baratillo Brotherhood<\/h2>\n
\"La

La Hermandad del Baratillo – Cr\u00e9dito: diariodesevilla.es<\/p><\/div>\n

During Holy Wednesday in Sevilla you\u2019ll be able to enjoy of the Holy Christ of Mercy Brotherhood and our Lady of Pity and Holy Mary of Charity in her Solitude, the most \u201ctorera\u201d (bullfighter) association in the Andaluc\u00eda\u2019s capital.\u00a0 Its history is closely linked to the bullfighting art in Sevilla and its artistic heritage is full of symbology, presenting its house of Brotherhood with multiple and beautiful details related to the bulls festivity.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

13. Jesus on the Pillar and Holy Mary of O in M\u00e1laga<\/h2>\n
\"Jes\u00fas

Jes\u00fas de la Columna\u00a0y\u00a0Mar\u00eda Sant\u00edsima de la O en M\u00e1laga<\/p><\/div>\n

During Holy Monday\u2019s night in M\u00e1laga there\u2019s an image of Christ carrying on his back the idiosyncrasy of a race.\u00a0 The Jesus on the Pillar and Holy Mary of O Brotherhood, the association of \u201cLos Gitanos\u201d(gypsies), comes out with its happy escort and somewhat unorthodox from Frailes street.\u00a0 As a curiosity, since 1996 the brotherhood has a Lignum Crucis relic, that each Holy Monday is carried on a monstrance on Holy Mary of O\u2019s right hand.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

14. San Benito<\/h2>\n
\"Hermandad

Hermandad de San Benito – Cr\u00e9dito: diariodesevilla.es<\/p><\/div>\n

This brotherhood is one of the associations that take out three steps to the street.\u00a0 The biggest of them, the mistery of the Sacred Presentation of Jesus to the Town stands out by its characteristic walks of the the Trianian steps, mark they maintain from their origins.<\/p>\n

The Virgin of Incarnation also preserves its old connection with the Sevillan neighborhood, given that it\u2019s called \u201cEaster Week processions in Andalucia – La Palomita de Triana\u201d since back then this symbol stood on its silver mantle.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

15. San Juan\u2019s Run in Alcal\u00e1 del Valle<\/h2>\n
\"La

La Carrerita de San Juan en Alcal\u00e1 del Valle – Cr\u00e9dito: nuestrasfiestas.com<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

16. Great Procession of the Holy Burial<\/h2>\n
\"Procesi\u00f3n

Procesi\u00f3n Magna del Santo Entierro – Cr\u00e9dito: sanroque.es<\/p><\/div>\n

Holy Friday in San Roque is a very pointed out day given that it the critical point of the San Roque Holy Week is celebrated.\u00a0 The Great Procession is one of the most notable samples of passion of the C\u00e1diz province, which serves as a meeting point for many people of San Roque that live outside the city.\u00a0 This is the day when all the brotherhoods get together carrying images that were already worshipped on the Pe\u00f1on before the fall of Gibraltar.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you’re wondering where to go for Holy Week this year, Andalucia is an excellent choice. Its tradition and passion will captivate you from the first in one of the most important times of the year for the Spanish people.<\/p>\n

Curiosities about the Holy Week processions in Andalucia<\/h2>\n

\"procesiones<\/p>\n

The Holy Week processions in Andaluc\u00eda are famous for their spectacle, devotion, and tradition. Here are some curiosities about these processions:<\/p>\n

The medieval origins of the processions:<\/strong> Although the Holy Week processions as we know them today became firmly established in the 16th century, their origins date back to the Middle Ages, when brotherhoods carried out public acts of penance.<\/p>\n

Tunic and hood:<\/strong> Penitents who participate in the processions wear tunics and hoods, which are conical pointed hoods. These garments are used to preserve the anonymity of the penitent, allowing them to perform their penance in a more humble and sincere manner.<\/p>\n

Floats and costaleros:<\/strong> The floats carried in the processions are huge wooden structures carved and decorated with religious images. Costaleros are people who carry these floats on their shoulders, walking for hours in processions, demonstrating their devotion and physical strength.<\/p>\n

Saetas:<\/strong> During the processions, it is common to hear saetas, which are improvised flamenco songs expressing devotion and emotion towards the religious images. These songs are a fundamental part of Andalusian Holy Week.<\/p>\n

\"Semana<\/p>\n

Brotherhoods and fraternities:<\/strong> The processions are organized by religious brotherhoods and fraternities. Each one has its own traditions and distinctive attire, and they compete in some cities for the honor of being the most prominent brotherhood.<\/p>\n

Procession schedules:<\/strong> The processions usually have strict schedules, and some start in the early morning and extend well into the night. The schedules can vary from one city to another and from one day to another during Holy Week.<\/p>\n

Nazarenos:<\/strong> Nazarenos are the penitents who wear the tunics and hoods. Each brotherhood has its own color and style of tunic, making it easy to identify which brotherhood they belong to.<\/p>\n

Sacred art<\/strong>: The floats and religious images carried in the processions are genuine works of art. Many of these sculptures are old and created by renowned artists.<\/p>\n

\"Curiosidades<\/p>\n

Incense and candles:<\/strong> During the processions, incense is burned, and lit candles are carried, creating a spiritual and solemn atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Silence and contemplation:<\/strong> Unlike other religious festivals, the Holy Week processions in Andaluc\u00eda are characterized by respect and solemnity. Often, a reverent silence is maintained during the procession.<\/p>\n

Decorated streets:<\/strong> Many streets where the processions pass are adorned with flowers and colored sawdust carpets, creating a festive and religious atmosphere.<\/p>\n

The “levant\u00e1s” and the effort of the costaleros:<\/strong> When a religious float (paso) begins to move, a “levant\u00e1” is performed, which consists of lifting the structure suddenly, with strength and in unison. In some brotherhoods, the first levant\u00e1 is dedicated to a specific person or cause.<\/p>\n

The heaviest religious float in Spain is in Seville:<\/strong> The float of the Virgin of Esperanza Macarena, which is carried during Seville\u2019s Madrug\u00e1 (the early hours of Good Friday), is one of the heaviest, weighing over a tonne. Its complex structure, along with the large number of flowers and ornaments, makes it a true challenge for the costaleros (bearers).<\/p>\n

\"procesiones<\/p>\n

The “petal\u00e1” in honour of the Virgin:<\/strong> In many cities, when the Virgin passes through certain locations, devotees throw a “petal\u00e1”\u2014a shower of flower petals that falls onto the image from balconies and rooftops, creating a stunning visual effect.<\/p>\n

Barefoot Nazarenes as a sign of penance:<\/strong> Some Nazarenes walk the long route of the procession barefoot as an act of penance and devotion. This practice is common in several Andalucian cities, particularly in Seville and C\u00f3rdoba.<\/p>\n

Granada, the only city with a procession that passes through the Alhambra:<\/strong> The Brotherhood of Santa Mar\u00eda de la Alhambra is the only one granted the privilege of passing through the interior of the Nasrid monumental complex. This route, with the illuminated Alhambra as a backdrop, is one of the most moving moments of Granada\u2019s Holy Week.<\/p>\n

Rain, the great enemy of the processions:<\/strong> Holy Week is a celebration highly dependent on the weather. If it rains, many brotherhoods decide not to go out in order to protect their images and floats from damage, which causes great disappointment among the faithful and participants.<\/p>\n
