Edition 2025 — Good Friday of Vertova

On Good Friday 2025, Vertova renewed its most evocative tradition: the deposition of Christ and the procession in costume through the streets of the historic center. Confraternity members, Roman soldiers, and hooded penitents animated the rite registered in the Lombardy Register of Intangible Heritage.

In 2025, the Procession of the Good Friday of Vertova was held on Friday, April 18th. In 2025 as well, the community relived the deposition of Christ from the cross and the solemn procession in costume through the streets of the historic center, starting from the parish church of Santa Maria Assunta.

The procession, with confraternity members, Roman soldiers, hooded penitents, torches, and lanterns, confirmed the strength of a tradition passed down from generation to generation and preserved by the Good Friday Group and the Parish of Vertova.
