About Semana Santa
Holy Week processions in Spain feature enormous floats carried by men. The nazarenos wear distinctive pointed hoods. Seville has the most famous processions. Floats (pasos) depict scenes from the Passion. Some floats weigh over 2,000 kg and need 40-50 carriers. A deeply solemn and emotional experience.
