Easter Celebrations in Mação

 
The Easter Celebrations are one of the most moving traditions of the municipality of Mação. It stands out the “Senhor dos Passos” Procession, a parade of paintings which represent the figures involved in the trial, conviction and death of Jesus. The recreation of the “Passos do Senhor” and the Easter Triduum take the last days on Earth and the Resurrection of Christ to the streets of Mação. 

 

It takes place during the 15 days prior to Easter and on Easter Sunday.
