2012 Holy Week in Pollença

From April the 5th to April the 8th

The Holy Week in Pollença is the celebration of the mystery of death and resurrection of Christ. It begins with the traditional Palm Sunday, day on which the people go out in procession throughout the streets of Pollença with their traditional olive branches and palm shoots and ends on the resurrection day, Easter Sunday.
On Thursday the Holy Blood procession, organized by the Holy Week Brotherhood Commission, is a procession that begins in the Parish church of Pollença, on the main square, and makes a journey through the different streets of the town via the traditional tables of passion set in biblical passages.

Friday is certainly the most important religious and artistic event “el Davallament” the awe-inspiring silent Descent of the Calvary, a procession that begins at the top of the Calvary and ends in the Parish church of Pollensa.
On Easter Sunday, the Day of Resurrection, a traditional procession celebrates the resurrection of Christ.
Pollença is faithful to its traditions and is probably one of the towns in Majorca where they live Easter more intensely
