Agrigento Holy Week

Dettaglio

In Agrigento, Holy Week is an experience that brings together faith, tradition, and atmosphere in an emotional setting. The streets of the historic center transform into theatrical stages where confraternities, hooded figures, and centuries-old statues narrate the Passion of Christ with intensity and devotion. The rituals, passed down through generations, culminate in the poignant Good Friday procession, a collective moment that involves the entire community. The sounds of the drums, the silence of the faithful, and the Baroque architecture provide the backdrop to an event that goes beyond religious ritual, becoming part of the identity. It is a time when Agrigento shows its authentic, profound, and welcoming nature, offering visitors a journey into the soul of the most spiritual Sicily.
