Holy Week is a very important time for everyone, but without a doubt, it has a special meaning for all those people who are part of a Brotherhood or Brotherhood.

The brotherhoods carry out a great work throughout the year, but it is during Holy Week when their activity becomes more intense: Preparing the Steps for the procession, fine-tuning the brotherhood clothing, conditioning the wax, etc…
