Via Dolorosa 3/30/02 Old City
Previous Page ---------Next Page
| This is a sign along the Via Delorosa.
This is the walk that takes you to the fifteen stations of the cross. The Via Dolorosa was started by the Fransican Monks that came to the city in the Fourteenth Century. They still lead a procession each Friday at 3:00 PM. We have lots of pictures but will only put one here. |

| Most of the stations of the cross have
the area marked and then a little chapel associated with that station. This chapel was the second station. This chapel is the Chapel of the Flagelation (where Jesus was scurged and had the crown of thorns). This ceiling on the chapel shows the crown of thorns. |
