Description

Experience the Holy Week that no longer exists. Discover Holy Week as never before with Past View · Holy Week Special, a different, unique and fully immersive route, available throughout Lent.

A tour with glasses that takes you to the Holy Week of the past, the one that has not survived to the present day. In this edition we will learn about some of the many extinct brotherhoods that once processed through our city and left traces that go unnoticed before our eyes. At each strategically located stop, a historian specialising in Holy Week will tell you fascinating stories, curiosities and legends. All of this comes with educational audiovisual content, the constant support of our assistants and an experience that blends history, emotion and technology.

In this edition we will cover the former brotherhoods of the Despedimiento, Sexta Angustia, Pópulo, Mareantes, Pecado Mortal and Concepción de Regina, among others.
