The holy week is a very important religious event for people living in
Pozzallo.
In
the Easter day, the image of Our Lady is brought in procession to the
main street of the town. When it is possible to see the statue of the
Christ risen by far, the meeting of the two statues is planned during
the procession.
This event has known as "Maronna Vasa Vasa" – “vasa” is a
dialectal word meaning “to kiss” – because, at the moment of the
meeting, the two statues get closer for a kiss. |
