Edition 2025 — Holy Week in Francofonte

In 2025, the Holy Week Rites in Francofonte took place from Holy Thursday to Easter Sunday in April, confirming themselves as one of the town's most deeply felt events. The processions of the Christ at the Column, the Dead Christ, and Our Lady of Sorrows, and the Easter Incrinata in Piazza Garibaldi marked four days of intense popular participation in the historic center of the Iblean town.

The 2025 edition of the Holy Week Rites in Francofonte (province of Syracuse) followed the usual schedule from Holy Thursday to Easter Sunday. The procession of the Christ at the Column on Holy Thursday, that of the Dead Christ and Our Lady of Sorrows on Good Friday, and the Incrinata on Easter Sunday in Piazza Garibaldi attracted faithful and visitors, renewing a tradition that in Francofonte constitutes a true bridge between generations.
