Gerusalemme, l’Esaltazione della Santa Croce al Santo Sepolcro

In brief

Frati of the Custody of the Holy Land celebrated the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross at the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

The procession began at the San Salvatore convent and moved toward the basilica. The kawas, traditional guards serving the churches in Jerusalem, opened the procession of the friars. This feast remains one of the oldest and most significant religious observances in the city.
