The seven Thursdays after Easter at the “Holy Spirit”
27 February 2026
Every Thursday after Easter, for seven consecutive weeks, the rock church of the Holy Spirit, located behind the cemetery, fills with faithful who come to light a candle and invoke the grace of the Holy Spirit.
This deeply rooted popular tradition is especially cherished by groups of women who walk there in a kind of pilgrimage to pray and recite the rosary. The ritual culminates on Pentecost Sunday with a procession that starts from the cemetery and reaches the crypt, where an open-air Mass of thanksgiving is celebrated.
