The Traditional Holy Week Procession In Orte, Central Italy
An elderly woman looks at a penitent member of a local religious brotherhood known as the Confratelli as she awaits the traditional Holy Week procession in Orte, Italy, on April 3, 2026. The Good Friday rite, dating back to the early 13th century, is considered one of the oldest and most unchanged in the country, featuring a solemn procession accompanying Christ to his burial.
