Like every year, from about 180 years, Petilia Policastro takes place the representation of Christ on Calvary, to commemorate the earthquake 's March 8, 1832 in which 30 people lost their lives. It is believed that, despite many deaths, the Holy Thorn has avoided an even greater tragedy. What could make a crippled if people do not rely on the Holy Relic. It is then that he established the tradition of making a pilgrimage of atonement and thanksgiving to the shrine. The Association also
Petilini in Genoa a few years participating in the event and with increasing intensity and devotion. In October 2010 we
received the honor and pleasure of having three days in Genoa for the Holy Thorn that along with other events, has involved many people from all over Italy. We like to think that this strong relationship is "work" of the relic. For this reason, but not limited to, that this year the Association organizes a coach to participate in the Procession of the 2nd Friday of March.
The start will be Wednesday, March 9 at 20.30 and 20.45 square Poch from Staglieno, returning to Genoa on Sunday 13 in the evening.
The fee for those wishing to participate, is 100 Euro, 95 Euro for members.
The reservations are such only by paying the entire fee, which must take place no later than February 28.
