THE PROCESSION OF HOLY

Holy Easter in Roccagloriosa is the recurrence that since ancient times has aroused intense popular participation in the rites of Holy Week.
The Procession of Holy Saturday in Roccagloriosa for its authentic theatricality remains in the Cilento the most significant and evocative event.
These are three processions which, starting from different sites and going through the narrow streets of the town, make sure that they will meet in the place called Calvary where the priest will celebrate the religious function.
The procession of the Faithful is accompanied by crowds of boys and girls of all ages who, with handcrafted folk instruments, make wooden wheels wedged together vibrate, generating a deafening noise that represents the agonizing pain of death of Jesus Christ. It is the sign of mourning .
Everything takes place shortly after dawn.
