Pilgrims Carrying Wooden Cross around Streets of Old City Jerusalem. C0053-1

Every Easter in the Holy City, thousands of Christian pilgrims gather around a large wooden cross they have carried along the Via Dolorosa, retracing the steps taken by Jesus nearly 2,000 years ago from the point of his condemnation to the site of his crucifixion. Along the way, they stop at the Stations of the Cross for prayer and recitation of the liturgy.
