Sacred representation of the Martyrdom in Joppolo Giancaxio

The Passio Christi in Joppolo Giancaxio is an ancient religious popular tradition that continues to be perpetuated today.
The Sacred Representation of the Passion is proposed with its extraordinary beauty and intensity: from the texts of the Knight Filippo d'Orioles the most significant scenes of the Via Crucis are represented in the streets of the town with interpreters, figures and the Choros.
Passio Christi in Joppolo Giancaxio is an opportunity to rediscover the value of tradition and experience a moment of profound spirituality.
