Holy Week

Easter is a big deal in the Campania region of Italy, and religious traditions that were started in the Middle Ages are still practised today. In Piano di Sorrento, Holy Week marks the start of a series of sombre processions to remember Jesus’ final days. It’s all really atmospheric and moving, with hooded townsfolk plodding slowly through the streets to the sounds of drums, chants, and prayers.
