It is a devotion of the holy Maria.
It ranges from the so called 'Palmsonntag' till the end of 'Ostersonntag'. All over the city there are processions, lead by the 'Hermandades' (brotherhoods) of the different parts of the city. This goes all back to the times of the early 16th century.

Calle de Doña María de Padilla, 41004 Sevilla, Spanien
